Regular Meeting of the Tiffin City Council was closed for the purpose of conducting a Public Hearing on proposed Annexations to the City of Tiffin on the south boundary of the city. Present from the City of Coralville were Mayor Jim Faussett, Coralville City Engineer Dan Holderness and City Manager Kelly Hayworth. Mayor Faussett explained that he had requested a special joint meeting with Tiffin City officials and had received a letter indicating that January might be a good time. Jim announced that he had not known anything about recent annexations, and had received no notification from the city. The clerk indicated that the City of Tiffin had not received any advance notification on City of Coralville annexations in an area directly east of this same area. Mayor Faussett asked that the council defer activity on annexations for a short time as the City of Coralville has drawn some of this area in their future land plans. The area under voluntary annexation is abutting the City of Tiffin at this time. The area considered by Coralville does not abut them nor is it contiguous to Coralville. Mayor Faussett indicated that they would like this westward area to be growth area for Coralville. Mayor
