Planning -
Annexation Process
New! City Council approved changes to the
Annexation Process, the Terms and Conditions for the
Sale of Utilities and Subdivision Regulations. These
changes will become effective July 1, 2008. Annexation
applications received before May 1 will be processed
according to the previous process. Applications
received May 1 or later will be subject to the new
Annexation Guidelines.
Current Annexation Application fees:
$270 for areas less than 5 acres
$540 for areas over 5 acres
As of July 1, 2008, there will be a change to the
annexation application fee. The new application fee
will be $1300 plus $130 for each additional
lot/parcel.
City Services provided by the City of Mesa
include:
- Emergency Protection (Fire, Medical and
Police)
- Water and Wastewater Services
- Refuse and Recycling Collection
- Neighborhood Services
It is the City of Mesa’s Policy
to provide these services only to properties within
the city limits. Owners of property outside the
city limits but within the City of Mesa Planning
Area (MPA) are required to follow the
Annexation/City Service Process to request
receipt of City of Mesa Services. The intent of this
process is to provide information and guidance for
property owners as they prepare to comply with City
Requirements for receiving City Services. In
accordance with City of Mesa policies, annexation
into the City of Mesa will be one of the
requirements that will be requested of applicants
for city services.
Note: There are a few properties outside
the Mesa city limits that already receive one or
more of these services. These properties may
continue to receive these services without annexing
into the City. However, to change or add to these
services you will need to go through the
Annexation/City Service Process.
The Annexation Process follows
specific criteria as determined by State Statute.
