Project Overview Request: [2] The applicant is requesting approval for de-annexation of 10 feet of right-of-way from the City of Mesa to Maricopa County at the request of the Maricopa County Department of Transportation. Both Brown Road and Crismon Road are under the jurisdiction of Maricopa County. The proposed de-annexation of 10 feet of right-of-way will allow for the improvements proposed for Crismon Road to be constructed entirely within Maricopa County right-of-way. Site Context The purpose of this agenda item is for City Council to consider an ordinance for a proposed de- annexation of 0.14+ acres of right-of-way depicted on Exhibit “A” (the “Right-of-Way”) and to deliver the Right-of-Way to Maricopa County. This de-annexation is subject to approval by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors and is allowed pursuant to A.R.S. §§ 9-471.02 and 9-471.03. Per State law, the City is required to set forth, by ordinance, the legal description of the public right-of-way and to declare the de-annexation and return of the public right-of-way contingent on the fulfillment of the conditions of A.R.S. §9-471.03 (A.R.S. §§ 9-471.02(I) and 9-471.03(C)). The subject de-annexation request was initiated by the Maricopa County Department of Transportation. Following approval by the City Council, the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors will conduct a public hearing, not less than thirty days nor more than sixty days after the date the ordinance is filed, consistent with the requirements of A.R.S. § 9-471.03. If the de- annexation is approved by the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors, the County ordinance will be filed with the Maricopa County Recorder’s Office. The City of Mesa Transportation Department and the Development Services Department recommend approval of the ordinance for the De-Annexation.
