The Property is located north of the northeast corner of Broadway Road and Rainbow Road within unincorporated Maricopa County and is identified as Maricopa County Assessor Parcel Number 504-21-023M (“Property”, “Annexation Area”). Description of expected future use/development of the proposed annexation area: The Property is 3.44 acres within the larger planned Rainbow 461 development. Refer to Exhibit 1, Vicinity Map. The current zoning in the county is RURAL-43 (Rural Zoning District - One Acre Per Dwelling Unit). At time of annexation, per state statute, the City will provide an initial zoning of R1-43 (Single-Family Residential 43) that most closely resembles the current County zoning. The intent following the annexation and initial zoning will be to amend the R1-43 zone district to match the existing single-family zoning of the surrounding Rainbow 461 site and incorporate the site into that project. The Rainbow 461 project consists of 470 total acres intended to be developed for single- family residential detached lots located north of Broadway Road, east and west of Rainbow Road. Preliminary Plans for Water and Sewer: Existing water and sewer infrastructure within the vicinity of the Property includes a 16-inch water line in Rainbow Road and a 15-inch sewer line within Watson Road 1 mile west of the proposed annexation area. Proposed water and sewer infrastructure will be determined as the Project progresses through entitlement. Intended access points to the Property: The Property is 3 acres within the larger planned Rainbow 461 development. Rainbow 461 will receive access from Rainbow Road, Broadway Road, and Dean Road.

As the overall Rainbow 461project is developed, the Property owner will address impacts to the School Districts, if any, as deemed necessary by the District.
