Analysis• Caution in annexation advised in Comprehensive Plan:
• "Rapid land use expansion and recent annexations have affected the identity of the City and established a new development pattern that is fiscally unsustainable.“
• Using the annexation tool too liberally creates pockets of land throughout the city that fall into disuse and lead to other issues

Plan’s Guidance for Annexation• the City should "annex areas before extensive
development of home sites and business properties occurs, guiding any such development within a framework of municipal regulations on zoning, subdivision, signs, fire prevention and building construction.“
• The area is vacant, and thus, no such development is in place;
• However, it is the intent of the developer to create, upon annexation, an extension of the existing residential subdivision in this area – so it is realistic and expected.

Plan’s Guidance for Annexation• Subdivision Ordinance requires that development that seeks to
utilize San Angelo's water service petition for annexation before such service can be extended – that was the trigger for this annexation;
• "recognize that determining best areas for annexation involves anticipating realistic potential for development around the urban fringe, annexing the most promising such areas...".

Plan’s Guidance for Annexation• This area is immediately adjacent to a residential subdivision,
known as the Prestonwood Addition;
• This addition was annexed to the city in 2008;
• This addition contains both traditional single-family residences and zero lot line homes;

Plan’s Guidance for Annexation• A network of water and sewer mains, available for extension,
are in existence nearby;
• These were extended and tied into during the process of developing The Prestonwood subdivision;
