ACTION/MOTION: (This language identifies the formal motion to be made by the Council) 
Council to take action on Resolution No. 32-25 declaring its intention to form a Maintenance
Improvement District; designating such District as "City of Buckeye Maintenance Improvement District
No. MID-2024-004"; to provide for the maintenance of parkings, parkways, retention basins and

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. Maintenance Improvement Districts (MIDs) are formed in the City of Buckeye in
accordance with Ordinance No. 42-06 and assess the owners within a development for the cost of
maintenance of the landscaping along the rights-of-ways within a development MID. MIDs are not
activated unless the development’s owners should fail or otherwise go out of business, since the owner
is responsible with that maintenance responsibility; however, the MID is standing by as a protection for
the City to ensure that there is adequate revenue to take on the maintenance if needed. The formation of
this MID is for the Tyler Ranch Subdivision, designating such District as “City of Buckeye Maintenance
Improvement District No. MID-2024-004”; and providing for the annual levy of taxes or an annual
assessment against the lots within the District in proportion to the benefits received.
BENEFITS:
Maintenance Improvement Districts ensure that only the owners that benefit from the improvements to
their community pay for that service. Having the costs of maintenance, repair, and improvement of rights-
of-way and parks within a District borne by the owners in a development ensure that the revenue needed
to fund these costs are 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 published and posted for notice to property owners.  Once statutorily required
notice is completed, the formation of the district will be addressed on a future council agenda.
