PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Special Warranty Deed conveys to the City of Buckeye the parcel identified for a well site of
approximately 24,750 square feet (0.57 acres), more or less, APN 504-48-537, located within the
Ventana Ranch subdivision. The deed transfers the property together with all rights, privileges,
easements, and improvements associated with the land, subject to existing encumbrances of record.
The conveyance is required to occur prior to the city’s acceptance of the well site and is essential to
ensuring the city holds full property rights needed to operate and maintain the new well site which was
designed and constructed by the developer. This property will serve as a new water supply for the
community as well as the Jackie Meck Water Campus service area, and support community growth.  The
Bill of Sale serves to convey the related water infrastructure, including, but not limited to, wells, well
equipment and machinery, well engines and pumps, and transmission lines.
BENEFITS:
Acceptance of this property allows the city to operate and maintain the Ventana Ranch Well Site #1.
