SALISBURY – The City Council is being guided to accept the annexation of land on the north-eastern edge of the city to be developed into a residential community.
The City Council had two resolutions before it on Monday evening regarding the “Merritt Mill Road/Smith Annexation.”
The first resolution proposed the annexation of land to the City of Salisbury known as the “Merritt Mill Road/Smith Annexation.”
According to the resolution, “the City has received a petition to annex, signed by at least 25 percent of the persons who are resident registered voters and of the persons who are owners of at least 25 percent of the assessed valuation of the real property in the area sought to be annexed.
“The area of land is contiguous to and binding upon the easterly corporate limit of the City. More specifically, located on the southerly side of and binding upon Merritt Mill Road, east of the intersection of Merritt Mill Road and Philip Morris Drive, and it is recommended that the boundaries of the City be changed as to annex and include all parcels of land and residents in that area.”

Don't we already have Adaylotte Farms which never got built and empty homes for sale all over town? What bank funds this stupidity?
I had no idea that 1 in 4 people is enough to introduce such a huge tax burden on your neighbors.
How in the HELL can 25% of the property owners force me to be annexed into the city against my will. This will cost me a fortune to pay city and county taxes. I guarantee the so called 25% of the property owners don't even live in this area. Please post the name of the owners and where they live. The council members that approve this should be recalled immediately. If the County Council members approve this they should be recalled immediately also.
This kind of crap is sooooooooo wrong.
The city can not take care of what it rules now why and how does this help any tax payer ,or it just help feed the beast?
Another slum and slumlord for the 'bury????
It's time to fight back.
Heck, they aren't keeping up what they have. Why add more?
Urban sprawl? Say no!
If I live in an area NOT in the city, it's because I DON'T WANT TO LIVE IN THE CITY.
