ACTION/MOTION: (This language identifies the formal motion to be made by the Council) 
Council to take action on Resolution No. 31-25 declaring the intention to annex property to a Street
Lighting Improvement District within the corporate limits of the City of Buckeye; designating such District
as "City of Buckeye, Street Lighting Improvement District No. SLID-2015-001" to provide for the
purchase of energy for lighting of public streets and parks within and adjacent to streets in the proposed
annexation to the District; ordering posting and publication of this Resolution, and declaring an
emergency.
SUMMARY
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Both Street Lighting Improvement Districts (SLIDs) and Maintenance Improvement Districts (MIDs)
provide for the benefit of ensuring there is a balance of revenue and expenditures to provide for the
quality of life for the residents/owners of a particular development without an undue burden upon the
existing community. Street Lighting Improvement Districts (SLIDs) are established to purchase (not
generate) energy for street lighting within the District and adjacent streets so that the costs are not borne
by the City in the Highway User Revenue Fund. This enlargement of SLID-2015-001 will add the Tyler
Ranch Subdivision.
BENEFITS:
Street Lighting Improvement Districts (SLIDs) ensure that only owners that benefit from the lighting in
their community pay for that service. Having the costs of street lighting within a SLID borne by the
owners in a development ensures that the revenue needed to fund these costs is always in place. Both
Street Lighting Improvement Districts (SLIDs) and Maintenance Improvement District (MIDs) provide for
the benefit of ensuring that there is a balance of revenue and expenditures to provider for the quality of
life for the residents/owners of a particular development without an undue burden upon the existing
community.   
FUTURE ACTION:
This resolution will be recorded and a conformed copy delivered to the Maricopa County Assessor and
the Arizona State Department of Revenue within ten (10) business days of Council action to ensure that
this SLID is on the tax rolls for fiscal year 2025/26. Actual SLID enlargement will occur in an upcoming
Council meeting.
