Councilwoman Kennedy concurred. 94 12. POTENTIAL ANNEXATION OF NORTH TUSTIN AREA Councilwoman Kennedy expressed concern that she is unsure whether annexation would be accomplished in phases, at all, or in one fell swoop. She reminded Council of her desire to conduct a straw vote in that area to determine how the silent majority feels on the matter. It's possible that they could come out in protest during the City's public hearing after we've proceeded under the illusion that a majority wanted annexation. The Mayor stated that NTMAC rejected the idea of polling through water billing. The December 4 meeting is their attempt to gauge community support for incorporation, status quo, or potential annexation. If they favor annexation, they will approach the City with a program of what they would like, and the City will have to make a decision on that. If they want to incorporate, once again they will have to come to the City to discuss same. The City can take a position either in support or opposition, or discuss what the boundaries of that incorporation might be. If they decide to. remain status quo, then nothing will occur. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6, 12-1-86 Councilman Edgar stated that Council has accurately conveyed to NTMAC that it is definitely opposed to a major annexation in one fell swoop. The Mayor confirmed Mayor Pro Tem Hoesterey's position that the Council by a majority vote {emphasizing it was not unani- mous) would be inclined to welcome an annexation program if it was phased over a period of time which would be feasible financially, politically, socially, etc. The Council is not taking a pro-active approach at this time, and is not encouraging one method or another. Council discussion followed. The Mayor explained to Helen Edgar in the audience that if a group representing North Tustin presents petitions for annexation equal to 50% or more of the existing population, a vote would be required by law. If small contiguous boundary parcels are annexed over the next 10-15 years, certainly no vote is necessary or advisable. 24 XIII.
