Project LEAP Phases 3-18 Annexations

Notice is hereby given of two public hearings before official bodies of the City of Lebanon, Indiana regarding the “Project LEAP – Phases 3-18 Annexations.”

The land sought to be annexed comprises forty-three (43) parcels of Boone County land containing a total of approximately 642.08 acres. The land is adjacent to existing city boundaries and satisfies the contiguity requirements of Indiana law for annexation. In accordance with state law, land comprising the adjacent public road rights-of-way are also to be part of the annexation.

No parcel of land is being annexed without the written consent of its owner(s), thereby making this a super-voluntary annexation under Indiana law. Copies of all landowner consents are included with the petitions.

The petitions request that the Common Council assign the LEAP Innovation District Planned Unit Development (LEAP PUD) zoning classification to the annexed land. The Council makes the final decision regarding the assignment of a zoning classification if the land is annexed.

The first hearing regarding this annexation will be before the City of Lebanon Planning Commission on Monday, September 18, 2023, at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers, Second Floor, Lebanon City Building, 401 South Meridian Street, Lebanon, Indiana. The purpose of this hearing is to receive information about the proposed or possible uses to be made of the land so that the Plan Commission can make a recommendation to the City Council as to an appropriate zoning classification for the land if annexed. Docket #’s 23-62, 23-63, 23-64, 23-65, 23-66, 23-67, 23-68, 23- 69, 23-70, 23-71, 23-72, 23-73, 23-74, 23-75, 23-76, and 23-77.

The second hearing will be on the annexation petition itself and will be held before the Lebanon City Council at 7:15 p.m. on Monday, September 25, 2023. That hearing will consider the reasons for the annexations, the legal requirements for annexation, the proposed or intended uses for the area, and fiscal information about the effects of the annexations. It is expected the Council will take final action on the proposed annexations and fiscal plans at its meeting on Tuesday, October 10th.

The full and complete legal descriptions of the perimeter boundaries of the land proposed for annexation and excepting the parcels that are excluded from the annexations are available for review in the City of Lebanon Planning & Zoning.

An Annexation Routing drawing dated August 11, 2023, submitted with the petitions for annexation depicts the parcels proposed for annexation.
