4. That the owners of the property are the Deridian Friends

is in accord with the Meridian Comprehensive Plan and the proposed
zoning ordinance and present zoning laws;

and the use will remain a residential use, that is a church with a
detached residence for use as a parsonage;

this annexation request is granted, it will create an enclave
where his property is. The Petitioners had previously been
informed that the City has a policy against annexations where
they create enclaves. Attempts were made at the hearing to
resolve the enclave problem by having the Peckham property
included in this annexation. No resolution of the problem was

orderly development of the City;

ment for water and sewer to be hooked up to the City, that that
be done as required by Ordinance;

Commission, but they also feel that the property should be
