(2) The unannexed property will be impacted by a capital improvement project such as a street improvement or utility extensions; or
(3) The unannexed property has a public health or safety issue that can be corrected with city utility connections or street improvements; or
(4) There is no reasonable means for the city to physically access a property that is adjacent to an unannexed property other than through the unannexed property or ROW.
