ANALYSIS: 
6. The subject property is presently located in the jurisdiction of Maricopa County and zoned 
General Commercial (C-3). Upon adoption of an annexation ordinance, the parcel would 
be assigned City of Buckeye Regional Commercial (C-3) zoning, the district most closely 
aligned with the property’s current Maricopa County C-3 zoning designation.  
7. The property currently features a general plan land use designation of Downtown Activity 
Center, which is intended to develop with a mix of uses complimentary to the Downtown 
Specific Area Plan. 
8. The proposed annexation will allow for development in accordance with the permitted 
uses and development/design standards of the City of Buckeye C-3 zoning district.  
9. The property will be eligible for City services such as police, fire, water and sewer. 
10. The annexation proposal meets eligibility for size, dimension, and contiguity 
requirements for annexations as outlined in ARS § 9‐471. 
11. The property is located within the Buckeye Union High School and Buckeye Elementary 
School Districts. The annexation should have no impact on either district.   
RECOMMENDATION: 
12. The Mayor and City Council should conduct a public hearing and adopt Ordinance No. 25-
25, approving the annexation of approximately 2.52 acres located at the northwest corner 
of E. Baseline Road and E. MC-85. Staff recommends approval of the request for the 
following reasons:  
a. Furthers goals of the Buckeye General Plan. 
b. Conformance with the Buckeye Development Code. 
c. Development of the property will process through the City of Buckeye. 
d. No outstanding issues from reviewing departments.
