STATEMENT OF FACTS:

1. The corporate boundary of the city of Enumclaw currently extends along the south margin of the road right-of-way for Southeast 448th Street from the west property line of parcel number 2720069052 to the west margin of the right-of-way at 244th Avenue Southeast.

6.  It is in the city and the county's best interest to have SE 448th Street right-of-way wholly within the city’s jurisdiction so that the city may make road improvements under city standards and provide local services to its residents including the maintenance and operation of the public right-of-way.
