Executive Summary
The recommended action is the final step of the annexation process for the proposed development into Community Facilities District (CFD) No. 2019-1 (Maintenance Services).

The Public Hearing was held on July 15, 2026, approving the annexation and conducted the first reading of the Ordinance. The special taxes will be levied annually to offset general fund expenditures related to maintenance of public improvements within and for the benefit of the development.
