Item to be presented by:
PUBLIC HEARING
DATE: April 24, 1997
SUBJECT: PROTEST HEARING: DETERMINE IF SUFFICIENT PROTEST EXISTS
AND MAEE FINDINGS ON WRITTEN PROTEST AND APPROVE AND
ORDER ANNEXATION NO. 1992-03 (SECO CANYON) AND
RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 97-19
RESOLUTION NO. 97-44
DEPARTMENT: Community Development
At the March 11, 1997 City Council meeting, it was explained that the day before the hearing
staff was approached by a land owner in the northerly portion of the annexation site who owns
approximately 10.5 acres and expressed the concern that it would create a hardship to have that
land included within the annexation boundary. A revised annexation map was drawn and
presented to the Council at the hearing for consideration as a substitute map. The Council was
informed that LAFCO review and approval would be required of the revised map. LAFCO
approval occurred on April 9, 1997. Subsequently, a new protest hearing must be held.
The purpose of a protest hearing is to offer property owners and registered voters within an area
proposed for annexation, a final opportunity to protest the annexation. This annexation is
termed an "inhabited" annexation, meaning that 12 or more registered voters reside within its
boundary. Therefore, by State law, the City Council must approve the annexation unless (1)
written protests are received by 15% or more of the area property owners, who also must own
at least 15% of the assessed valuation of the property proposed for annexation, or (2) if the
number of protests range between 15% and less than 50%, an election must be held, or (3) if the
percentage of opposition of either group is greater than 50%, the City Council must deny the
annexation. In this event, a minimum of one year must lapse before the annexation could
resume.
The action before the Council is a resolution to approve findings on written protests and to
approve and order Annexation No. 1992-03 (Seco Canyon). The annexation consists of
approximately 416 acres of inhabited land located in the Saugus area, north of Copper Hill Drive
and east and west of Seco Canyon Road.

This annexation was initiated in 1992 by area residents seeking the benefits, representation,
and services of cityhood. In addition, the City wished to form a more logical City boundary. The
City Council adopted a Resolution of Application (No. 96-94) for this proposal on June 25, 1996,
requesting that the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) initiate annexation
proceedings.
The attached resolution states the direction given to Council by the LAFCO to proceed with a
duly noticed public hearing and sets forth the reasons for the annexation and the terms and
conditions established for the annexation by the LAFCO. If the annexation proceeds as
scheduled, it will be complete the day following the hearing.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Accept public testimony, close the public hearing and the protest period and adopt
Resolution No. 97-44, making findings regarding written protest and rescinding Resolution
No. 97-19, or
2. If the hearing results in a sufficient number of written protests, continue the hearing to a
date certain to take appropriate action.
