Regular Council Meeting May 12, 2025 Page 4 City Attorney Stephanie Harris said Staff recommended denying disannexation of these properties, citing loss of taxes for the City and the number of acres involved in the disannexation. Trey Kraft spoke in favor of the disannexation because they would not have access to water and did not have an easement to fix. He said they were in the country when they moved out there and they did not want to be in the City and especially close to a neighborhood. He said they treated large animals, as well as small animals. Ms. Harris said the city limits did not have a bearing. Mayor Pankaj said he was for keeping them in the City and that he felt that the community development department could help them work out the easement issue.
