17- 0006
Chairwoman Hoch opened the public hearing.
Planning Director Mark Stursma, 122 E. Third Street, stepped forward to represent the
applicant. He summarized that the City proposes to adopt a portion of Sarpy County's Future
Land Use Map that is within the City's projected future growth area. He noted that the City
wishes to ensure that the extension of its extraterritorial jurisdiction ( ETJ) in relation to the
proposed 2017 Annexation No. 3 is covered by a Future Land Use Map. Mr. Stursma added
that this also allows for consistency in planning. He explained that the area in question is
generally located east of I- 80 and 204th Street and north of Platteview Road, and extends east
to 156th Street as to not encroach on the boundary agreement that the City holds with the City of
Springfield. He displayed the proposed Future Land Use Map for the described sub- area, and
summarized the land use designations therein.
Mr. Masters asked whether there was a relationship between this agenda item and the
proposed Gretna annexation. Mr. Stursma explained that the City had been working on this
amendment prior to Gretna's annexation becoming public. He observed that part of Gretna' s
proposed ETJ would extend into this area should Gretna' s annexation and ETJ extension be
approved. He established that the City's intent in this adoption is to offer consistency for

Annexation No. 3) MISC- 17- 0013
Chairwoman Hoch opened the public hearing.
Planning Director Mark Stursma, 122 E. Third Street, stepped forward to represent the
applicant. He suggested that the request proposes an annexation of areas to the east and
southwest of current Papillion city limits. He gave a brief overview of the individual annexation
tracts. He confirmed that the City has conducted an annexation analysis and concluded that the
annexation is appropriate and that the City is able to provide services to the annexed areas
within the necessary timeframe.
Mr. Barker asked whether additional services would need to be added for the southwestern
tracts. Mr. Stursma explained that the annexation of Cottonwood would require the City to
expand the number of services offered, specifically in the need for additional police officers,
cruisers, and public works services. He remarked that residential areas typically have a much
higher demand for services than industrial areas.
Mr. Barker asked whether the existing fire station located near 108t'' Street and Schram Road
would service the southwestern tracts. Mr. Stursma answered in the affirmative.
Mr. Keller asked staff to clarify how far the ETJ extends past city limits. Mr. Stursma answered
that as a City of the first class, Papillion has a two mile ETJ. He noted that this annexation
would not affect the City's ETJ to the east due to existing boundary agreements with the City of
Bellevue and the City of La Vista; however, it would expand the ETJ to the southwest.
Mr. Masters asked whether Tract E, the Oxbow Way tract, was fully developed. Mr. Stursma
noted that a pet food processing and packaging facility had been built on the property.
Chairwoman Hoch called for proponents and opponents.
Marilyn Krautkremer, 1702 LeBaron Drive, expressed support for the annexation as a
Cottonwood resident.
Seeing no further public input, Chairwoman Hoch closed the public hearing and called for
Commission Discussion.
Mr. Barker inquired as to the process of annexation analysis. Mr. Stursma noted that tracts
being annexed by the City must be contiguous and adjacent to the city limits, and urban or
suburban in nature. He explained that the City must also take other things into consideration
such as financial burden and the City's ability to provide services. He offered a brief overview of
SID funding and annexation analysis. He explained that the City performs annexation analysis
on an annual basis.
Mr. Keller asked when the Cottonwood SID was established. Travis Gibbons confirmed that it
was established over 30 years ago.

With no further discussion, Motion was made by Mr. Barker, seconded by Mr. Robinson III, to
recommend approval of the Ordinance 1789 ( MISC- 17- 0013) 2017 Annexation No. 3 because it
is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, Zoning Regulations, and surrounding uses. Roll
Call: Nine yeas, no nays. Motion carried.
Ordinance No. 1790— An ordinance to change the official Zoning Map of the City of Papillion in
accordance with Section 205- 32 of the Papillion Municipal Code to adopt a Zoning Map and to
apply existing or future zoning regulations, property use regulations, building ordinances,
electrical ordinances, plumbing ordinances, and all other regulatory ordinances of the City of
Papillion pursuant to Neb. Rev. Stat. § 16- 901. The applicant is the City of Papillion. ( MISC- 17-
0014)
Chairwoman Hoch opened the public hearing.
Planning Director Mark Stursma, 122 E. Third Street, stepped forward to represent the
applicant. He displayed the Extraterritorial Jurisdiction Extension exhibit. He noted that the City
is not proposing to encroach on its boundary agreement with the City of Springfield with this
extension. He explained how the proposal extends the City's ETJ.
Mr. Stursma also displayed exhibits that portray the current zoning of the proposed area of the
ETJ extension, as well as the proposed conversion and briefly explained both. He noted that
there are not any existing uses in the proposed area that would fall under zoning that is
inconsistent with Sarpy County's zoning designations.
Mr. Keller asked what would happen if the City of Papillion and the City of Gretna had
overlapping ETJs. Mr. Stursma reminded all present that the ETJ extension was prepared prior
to Gretna' s annexation plan being made public. He explained that this proposal does not
overlap the City of Gretna' s current ETJ, nor does it violate the City's boundary agreement with
the City of Gretna.
Mr. Masters asked whether the zoning conversion would have detrimental effects on any of the
landowners that fall within the proposed extension. Mr. Stursma stated that he did not believe
that it would, as the proposed ETJ expansion area is generally rural in nature.
Mr. Carson asked whether Gretna' s annexation proposes that Gretna will extend its jurisdiction
past I- 80. Mr. Stursma answered that he would not state the intention of the City of Gretna. He
reiterated that the City's proposal does not overlap the City of Gretna' s current ETJ, nor does it
violate the City's boundary agreement with the City of Gretna. He noted that it does appear that
Gretna did honor its boundary agreement with the City of Papillion in its annexation proposal.
Chairwoman Hoch called for proponents and Seeing no further public input,
opponents.
Chairwoman Hoch closed the public hearing and called for Commission Discussion.
Mr. Masters offered his support.
Mr. Wilson asked for clarification on the contiguity of the annexation tracts. City Attorney Karla
Rupiper and Mark Stursma explained that the City performed a parcel by parcel legal analysis to
ensure that each parcel is adjacent and contiguous, as well as urban and suburban in nature.
Ms. Rupiper noted that the City presented its plan to Sarpy County's legal department. She also
noted that the City is confident that the proposed annexation is legal.

Ms. Sunde asked whether the City would perform snow removal on Highway 50 after the
annexation. Mr. Stursma explained that the City has one year to provide public services to the
area being annexed. He noted that the City could possibly execute an agreement with the
County and/ or the State to contract these services in the most efficient manner.
Chairwoman Hoch asked how soon services might be provided to Cottonwood. Mr. Stursma
explained that the City has one year to provide services and that a timeline for providing
services is being developed based on the time required to hire additional staff and acquire the
needed equipment.
With no further discussion, Motion was made by Mr. Keller, seconded by Ms. Sunde, to
recommend approval of the Ordinance 1790 ( MISC- 17- 0014) 2017 Annexation No. 3 because it
is consistent with § 205-32 of the Zoning Regulations. Roll Call: Nine yeas, no nays. Motion
carried.
