Title
Consider and take action on a resolution to accept approximately 130.9043 acres of land, recently disannexed by the City of Friendswood, into League City’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), as provided in an Interlocal Agreement between the two cities (City Attorney)
Background:
Approval of this item will formally begin the process for League City to annex approximately 130.9 acres of land located along FM 528, currently outside League City’s limits but formerly within the city limits of Friendswood, Texas.
This property is currently owned by BC‑SB Baybrook JV LLC and consists of land better served by League City due to its location and access. To streamline services and future development, the property owner submitted a petition to Friendswood to remove the property from its boundaries-a process called disannexation.
In response, League City and Friendswood entered into an Interlocal Agreement, which outlines the following key steps:
• Friendswood disannexes the property, officially removing it from its city limits.
• League City agrees to accept the disannexed land into its ETJ, as required before annexation can occur.
• League City will initiate annexation proceedings for the property within 120 days, per state law via a companion agenda item.
This action ensures that municipal services are efficiently delivered to the property, and that future development aligns with League City’s planning goals.
