Copies of the Fiscal Plan are available to the public for a fee in accordance with city ordinances. Questions related to this annexation can be directed to Michael Hollibaugh, Director, Department of Community Services, City of Carmel (317-571-2417). Executive Summary of Annexation Impact Summary of Fiscal Impact The following table summarizes the properties involved in the proposed annexation and the property tax burden on that property, according to the "Online Tax Report" obtained from the Hamilton County website. parcel # taxable value 2002 property taxes area 17-10-33-00-00-027.000 $115,000 $1,008 1.9 17-10-33-00-00-028.000 $2,000 $20 0.6 17-10-33-00-00-029.000 $88,200 $767 1.3 totals $205,200 $1,795 3.8 projected property tax increase $215 $269 resulting from annexation (Iow-high) Annexation of the above properties is projected to result in an overall increase in the total property tax bills of the parcels, as shown above, which represents a projected tax impact of 12%-15%. The final amount of this tax increase will depend upon several factors, possibly including: the final, approved budgets (and subsequent property tax rates) of the county, township, and city of Carmel; any changes to the financial configuration of the j oinder agreements between the City and township (especially changes relating to the Parks and Fire joinders); and the final disposition of property tax issues currently being studied by the Indiana General Assembly. Contiguity The annexation territory is completely surrounded by and 100% contiguous with the corporate boundaries of the City of Carmel. Area #17 Annexation Fiscal Plan/3 Parcels along Gray Road: Carmel, IN ~ Proportion Subdivided The annexation territory is entirely the result of the subdivision process. Although the parcels, themselves, were not a part of a developed subdivision, research into county land records suggests that these parcels are remnants resulting from subdividing larger parcels for the purpose of residential development. As such, these parcels are themselves subdivided from larger parcels, thereby making the annexation area more than 60% subdivided. Annexed Population The proposed annexation will include a nominal amount of additional population, amounting to a population increase of less than 0.1%. Consequently, the annexation is not projected to have any appreciable impact on population-based revenue streams of the City. Annexed Streets & Roads The annexation area is estimated to add less than 0.2 miles of streets and roads to the municipal thoroughfare system which contains approximately 204 miles of local streets and roads. Therefore, the projected fiscal impact of the proposed annexation on the street department is estimated to be less than 0.1% on the revenue streams related to thoroughfare miles. Summary of Municipal Service Impact The proposed annexation involves properties which are already receiving a full complement of municipal services, including capital and non-capital services of the Street Department, Fire Department, Police Department, city administration (including planning), and municipal utilities. Some of these municipal services are provided through joinder agreements with the township. All municipal services will be provided to the annexation territory in a manner equivalent to the provision of services to other parcels within the corporate limits. DEPARTMENTAL SERVICES PROVIDED BY JOINDER Many municipal services of the City of Carmel are offered through a joinder agreement with Clay Township. The following services are provided through joinder agreements: fire protection, parks, planning/zoning/community development services, and the communications center. Since these joinder services are provided inside and outside of the corporate limits of the City, the proposed annexation will generate no measurable fiscal impact on the operation of these j oinder departments. Instead, the revenues associated with these departments will simply be transferred from the township budget to the municipal budget, thereby generating no net impact on the taxpayer. IMPACT ON POLICE DEPARTMENT The projected fiscal impact of the annexation on the police department is projected to be negligible. Carmel Police already patrol the corridors serving the property in the annexation territory, as well as answering calls for service in the area. As a purely technical matter, ifa crime or a call for service were to occur on the property within the annexation territory, the City Police are supposed to defer to the County Sheriff. However, as a practical matter, the technical minutia of such jurisdictional issues is projected to actually cost more than it is worth to enforce. Area #17 Annexation Fiscal Planl3 Parcels along Gray Road: Carmel, IN 2 annexation area. If capital services are later identified as necessary and appropriate under the municipal service policies of the municipality, such capital services will be covered through the issuance of some form of municipal debt. Other Considerations Land Use The annexation area is currently dominated by low-density residential development. 60% Subdivided The annexation area has been more than 60% subdivided for development under the provisions of the comprehensive plan, zoning ordinance and subdivisions regulations which govern the joinder services of the community (including the city and the township). Population Density Due to the fact that the annexation area is small, residential, and having very few parcels, the population density cannot be precisely determined with available data. Needed & Can' Be Used The annexation area is needed by the municipality for its development at the present time and in the reasonably near future. The municipality already provides many municipal services to the annexation area, as well as reviewing/approving development proposals for land within the area. Annexing Territory 100% Contiguous with the City The City of Cannel previously approved annexation policies which specifically addressed areas of 100% contiguity with the City, as follows: "As Carmel has developed, there have been areas left outside of its corporate limits which are approaching 100% contiguity (i.e. completely surrounded by the city). A recent map of the incorporated city shows several such areas east of Spring Mill Road. It is, therefore, the policy of the city that such areas be considered for annexation at the earliest practical time, with appropriate consideration of the cost of services to each specific area." This annexation is specifically undertaken due to this policy. Annexation of Indebtedness In any annexation action, the City of Carmel will comply with all statutory requirements regarding the absorption of debt incurred by the unincorporated township for the purpose of providing municipal services to the annexation territory.
