My name is Sarah Pilibos. Iam here to represent my family as the owners of 1919, 1949 & 2011 S. Willow Avenue. Our property is designated for annexation per the Notice dated August 26, 2022 Reference Property AL20 to RM-2/ANX.
We received this notice on August 30, 2022. This is our first and only notice of the proposed action. Due to the unknown impact of this action, I am here to clearly state for the record that we are opposed to annexation.
Our property is home to my mother, Lucille, who is 100, our employees and tenants, my husband and myself. We have no intention to move or relocate.
Our property is an active farming operation, started in 1951 by my father & mother, Steve & Lucille Pilibos. We have 2 fields of citrus; one will come into full production this year (its 4th year); the other is a rare variety of seedless Satsuma Oranges, which has been in production for over 60 years. We also have horses, barn, and a full shop for farm machinery.
Because we have no idea of the impact this proposal will have on our property- its use or expenses; we request a meeting with City Staff as soon as possible.
Our concerns include, but are not limited to, unforeseen costs for community services, such as the Fresno County Fire Transition Fee, use of our well and water rights, or other services that may result in capital improvement expenses to us as the property owner.
I submit a copy of this statement with my contact information so City Staff can reach me at their earliest convenience. Thank you for your time.
