Annexation on Burkett Road

Under Ordinance No. 649, the council will consider bringing 25.5 acres at 8700 Burkett Rd. into the Noble city limits, according to the meeting agenda. The property is owned by the Noble Utility Authority. The legal description places the land in Section 3, Township 7, Range 2 West of the Indian Meridian in Cleveland County, bounded on one side by the BNSF Railroad right of way.

The agenda does not state why the city is annexing the parcel or what it plans to use it for.
