Property owners, Dennis E. Jordan, Joseph & Elizabeth Origer, Leroy Brown III, Nello Medici Life Estate (North), Nello Medici Life Estate (South), Sante & Nello Medici and Jerome & Josephine Schmitt have requested annexation to the City of Ankeny. The land is roughly 25.7 acres located in the southeast quadrant of Ankeny, generally located east of S Ankeny Boulevard, south of SE 33rd Street and SE Primrose Drive. The annexation area consists entirely of petitioned land and is contiguous with the corporate boundary of Ankeny. There are a few different options to get water to the subject area. The Developer can choose to connect to 10” water on Ankeny Boulevard, just south of SW 33rd Street; bore under South Ankeny Boulevard and connect to 8 inch water installed with Willow Run West; or bore under South Ankeny Boulevard and connect to the County’s 8 inch main and coordinate with all properties north of 72nd Street due to their water rates changing if the portion of water main changed to City water main. Sanitary sewer will be extended south from SE Primrose Drive. A private lift station will likely be installed to serve the western portion of the area requesting to be annexed.
