ALTERNATIVES:
• Option A - Annex the land as requested:
The City of Phoenix will control rezoning requests in this area to ensure conformance with the
General Plan Land Use Map. The City of Phoenix will capture property tax, utility tax, state shared
revenue, and impact fees when applicable.
• Option B - Deny the request for annexation:
If annexed later, this site would have been developed under County zoning and development
standards that may not be consistent with the General Plan, Land Use Map, zoning, and
development standards.
RECOMMENDATION:
Located adjacent to City of Phoenix lands, this annexation is supported by the 2025 General Plan,
particularly the Land Use goal for land uses and development standards for unincorporated land, under
Policies 1 and 2. This annexation is recommended for approval. Approval of annexation does not constitute
recommendation for future rezoning actions.
SUPPORTING INFORMATION:
I. Water and Sewer Service
Water Pressure Zone Area: (1)
Acres: 28.11
Water:
12-inch ACP water main within W. Dobbins Rd
24-inch DIP transmission water main within W. Dobbins Rd. (Do not use)
Sewer:

Significant infrastructure improvements will be (or may be) required in order to serve the proposed
parcels within the City of Phoenix service area. Design and construction of any infrastructure will
be the responsibility of the developer. Specifics regarding infrastructure improvement
requirements would be discussed and determined at a pre-application meeting after annexation.
It is the City’s intent to provide water and sewer service. However, the requirements and
assurances for water and sewer service are determined during the site plan application review, or
the building permit approval, and may be subject to future restrictions as a result of water
shortage. Water and/or sewer system requirements and stipulations are determined at time of site
plan approval. Capacity on any existing infrastructure is determined at that time of preliminary site
plan approval. Please be advised that capacity is a dynamic condition that can change over time
due to a variety of factors.

Per City Code 37-22, 37-39 and 37-142, annexation into the City requires all properties connect to
the City’s public water system. All existing on-site private wells must be disconnected to prevent
cross contamination with the City’s public water system.
Developments that use an average of 250,000-gallons of water or more per day are required to
provide a Water Conservation Plan. In addition, developments that use an average of 500,000-
gallons of water or more per day are required to demonstrate a minimum of 30% water reuse in
the Water Conservation Plan. The Water Conservation Plan must be reviewed and approved by
the Water Services Department (WSD) prior to preliminary site plan approval.
