The City of Farmington is entitled to a 5‐mile Planning and Platting Jurisdiction (PPJ) and the Town of Kirtland is entitled to a 3‐mile Planning and Platting Jurisdiction (PPJ), except where Farmington’s PPJ exists. The City’s Planning and Platting Jurisdiction consists of three Tiers. Tier 1 includes the portion of land located within the City’s incorporated area. Tier 2 includes land that is close to and immediately adjacent to the City. Tier 3 is the area located within 5 miles of the City’s incorporated area. Areas located in Tier 3 are viewed as that land area that could be annexed by the City in the longer term, perhaps within 20 years or more. The PPJ area that is proposed to be transferred to the Town of Kirtland is located in Tier 3. The current proposal considers the wishes of a property owner located east of Road 6200 to remain within the City’s PPJ while ensuring the Town of Kirtland’s ponds east of Road 6200 will be located with the Town’s PPJ. The proposal also includes all of Little Creek Subdivision and Safety City to remain in the City’s PPJ. The area along Twin Peaks west of the City presents future opportunities for residential and nonresidential growth for the City. Staff recommends approval. Larry Hathaway, Trustee for the Town of Kirtland, #9 Rd. 6070, stated the PPJ has been considered for quite a while. The Board of Trustees approved the current proposal. The Commissioners discussed the proposal.
