ORDINANCE NO. 3873

 

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 2725 ANNEXING TERRITORY TO THE CITY OF GRAND JUNCTION, COLORADO - BLUFFS WEST ANNEXATION LOCATED EAST OF 23 ROAD AND NORTH OF E ROAD

Recitals:

 

In January of 1994 the City Council annexed land to the City by Ordinance 2725. That ordinance described an area known as the Bluffs West Annexation.

 

In February 2006 the City exercised land use jurisdiction for the annexation of the proposed Bellhouse subdivision. During the course of preparing the Bellhouse annexation an error in the description of the Bluffs West annexation was discovered. Specifically Lot 1, Block 1 of the Rio Vista Subdivision was erroneously described as part of the Bluffs West annexation.

 

This ordinance amends the description contained in Ordinance 2725 and by adoption thereof serves to exclude from the Bluffs West annexation the area described.
