This item concerns a proposed contraction to the jurisdictional boundaries of the Mayfair Community Development District. The Mayfair Community Development District is the applicant for this ordinance, which would amend City Code, Chapter 20, Article IX, Sections 20-289 and 20-291. This matter is currently under review, having had a first reading and public hearing before the City Council on May 12, 2026, and a recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Board on April 16, 2026.

4. AGENCY TERMINATION DATE. Pursuant to Section 4 of the Original Interlocal
This civic agenda item concerns a planned revision to the termination date of an agency agreement.
