Annexation No. 1992-02 (the "Valley Gateway Annexation") is located south of the existing
City limits, east and west of Sierra Highway, and west of the centerline of State Route 14..
(See attached map.) The proposed annexation area consists of 47.36 acres of uninhabited
land, 27.13 acres (including "Beale's Cut,' an identified State Historical Landmark) of which
are conditioned to be dedicated to the City of Santa Clarita in conjunction with the Valley
Gateway Project (Master Case No. 92-012) approval. Proposed Resolution No. 94-86 "Making
Findings On Written Protest and Approving and Ordering Annexation No. 1992-02 to the
City of Santa Clarita" represents the final action to be taken by the City Council to complete
the annexation. If the hearing results in insufficient written protest, the Resolution will be
forwarded to the LAFCO for review and certification, and the annexation will be recorded
within 15-30 days.

51044, CUP No. 92-001 and OTP No. 92-002; certifying Final EIR SC 92041041; and
recommending approval of Prezone 92-001 to the Council. On September 14, 1993, the
Council adopted Ordinance No. 93-14, amending the Official City Zoning Map for the portion
of the Valley Gateway Project site located within the unincorporated area of Los Angeles
County. Annexation No. 1992-02 was submitted to the LAFCO for processing on September
15, 1993.
On June 22, 1994, the LAFCO approved the annexation and directed the Council to proceed
with a duly noticed public hearing. The Resolution states the LAFCO's direction to the
Council to proceed with a duly noticed public hearing, and sets forth the reasons for the
annexation; terms and conditions established for the annexation by the LAFCO; and a map
and legal description of the proposed annexation area.
Adopted: ' Age: _ i Item:
Annexation No. 1992-02 is defined as "uninhabited," and therefore, pursuant to State law,
only property owners may protest. The Council must approve the annexation if protests are
filed by less than 50% of the property owners owning property worth less than 50% of the
total assessed value of the proposed annexation area; however, the Council must deny the
annexation if the same percentage is greater than 50%.
