RE: Annexation Plan – Service Inventory Requirements

Dear __________:

This letter is to inform you that the City of Harlingen adopted a three year annexation plan on December 19, 2001. A map of the proposed annexation area is attached. This property would be scheduled for annexation between December 19, 2004 and January 20, 2005. New state law requires that the City compile a comprehensive inventory of services and facilities provided by public and private entities in each area proposed for annexation. You are required to respond to this request within 90 days of the date of this letter. A copy of Chapter 43.053 of the Texas Local Government Code which specifies what information is to be provided is enclosed for your use. Once we receive all the requested information we will compile it within 60 days and it will be available for public inspection. (Estimated completion time July 2002)

The next action will be to hold two public hearings within 90 days of the inventory compilation above (estimated time frame September – October 2002). You will not be individually notified of these hearings. They will be advertised in the Valley Morning Star in the classified ad section 10-20 days before each hearing and posted on the Harlingen webpage at www.ci.harlingen.tx.us/planning. If you have any questions you may contact the City’s Planning Department at 427-8727. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

Sincerely,

Michelle R. McCoy, AICP
Director of Planning & Development
