After the Lincoln City City Council formally decided to officially annex the Roads End area into the city December 10th, the Roads End Water District began their legal challenge. The group has filed an appeal to the state Land Use Board of Appeals (LUBA).
LUBA Appeal:
The text of the appeal has not yet been published but the title describes it as an appeal of an ordinance annexing the Roads End area to the City of Lincoln City. Interested parties can search the LUBA website for Roads End Water District v. City of Lincoln City, LUBA No. 2012-101, which was filed December 28, 2012.
Lincoln City leaders have received another batch of warnings from Roads End residents that shutting off their water supply will lead to a court battle.
After several false starts, Lincoln City is set to proceed with the final phase of its effort to gather enough annexation consents from Roads End property owners to bring the area inside the city limits.
The residents of Roads End recently received a positive Initial Review of their application to drill six wells which will become the new source of water for the reformulated Roads End Water District (REWD). Also this week Lincoln City Council passed a resolution to direct the city manager to send 60-day notices to Roads End area residents requiring signed agreements consenting to annexation in order to receive continued water service.
