Document Description
The City is pursuing the annexation of 30 parcels totaling approximately 2,800 acres located within and outside the City Sphere of Influence and adjacent to the city limits. The City intends to annex the project area to provide more efficient public services. The annexation area currently receives municipal services from El Dorado County and Lake Valley Fire Protection District but is geographically isolated—an island separated from the habitable portions of El Dorado County. If the annexation is approved, the City will provide core services, including street maintenance, snow removal, police, fire protection, and emergency response.
