ORDINANCE 
C-06-24-243-X-01 
WHEREAS, A.R.S. § 9-471 .02 and 9-471 .03 provide a method for deannexation of land from a 
municipality to a county; and 
WHEREAS, pursuant to A.R.S. § 9-471.03(C), the City of Phoenix passed and adopted Ordinance 
No. S-49903 declaring the deannexation of the territory described as follows: 
A portion of the southeast quarter of the Southeast quarter of Section 24, Township 1 North, Range 1 
East, G&SRB&M, Maricopa County, Arizona. 
WHEREAS, it is the desire of Maricopa County to receive the certain deannexed territory now 
within the corporate limits of the City of Phoenix and 
WHEREAS, the territory proposed to be severed and returned to Maricopa County meets the 
conditions outlined in A.R.S. § 9-471 .03, and 
WHEREAS, Maricopa County Department of Transportation conducted an analysis of the impact of 
the Deannexation as follows: 
The existing roadway is owned/operated/maintained by MCDOT. The property adjacent to the western 
right-of-way is developing requiring roadway and intersection improvements. These improvements 
require deannexation to accommodate full width of an arterial roadway and full maintenance and 
operation of the intersection. This action will ensure the roadway is fully within unincorporated Maricopa 
County and reduce conflict of liability. The roadway improvements are a necessary improvement to the 
traveling public. 
WHEREAS, after such notice as was appropriate and legally required, the Maricopa County Board 
of Supervisors scheduled a hearing on the matter on November 1, 2023; and 
WHEREAS, it was determined at such hearing that requirements pursuant to A.R.S. § 9-471 .03 (C, 
D and E) have been satisfied; and 
WHEREAS, it is the determination of the Board of Supervisors that the public interest is served by 
the deannexation; and 
WHEREAS, no protests were filed before the Board of Supervisors, 
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Board of Supervisors of Maricopa County, Arizona, 
that the territory earlier described in City of Phoenix Ordinance No. S-49903 is hereby declared to be 
returned to Maricopa County contingent on the remaining requirements of A.R.S. § 9-471.03 including the 
final public hearing scheduled for December 6, 2023. 
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the Board of Supervisors of Maricopa County, Arizona, this 1st day of
