MOAB CITY
ANNEXATION POLICY DECLARATION
WHEREAS, the state of Utah has enacted legislation which requires
municipalities to adopt an annexation policy declaration as a
condition precedent to annexing unincorporated territory having
more than five acres; and
WHEREAS, Moab City desires to annex territory on its boundaries;
and
WHEREAS, urban development should occur within cities and Moab City
desires to encourage urban development within its boundaries rather
than allowing urban development on the city's periphery.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF MOAB CITY ADOPTS THIS
ANNEXATION POLICY DECLARATION:
1. The City desires to annex all of the territory shown on the
attached map.
2. Where feasible and practicable, the City favors annexation
along the boundaries of water, sewer improvement or special
service districts. The City favors (1) the elimination of
island and peninsulas of unincorporated territory; (2) the
consolidation of overlapping functions of local government;
(3) promoting efficient delivery of services; and (4)
encouraging the equitable distribution of community resources
and obligations.
3. The City favors the annexation of all unincorporated area
which is or may become urban. The City does not favor
annexation of territory which creates islands or areas of
undeveloped and undevelopable territory or of territory which
should be located with another municipality. The City does
not favor the annexation of unincorporated territory solely
for the purpose of acquiring municipal revenue or for
retarding the capacity of another municipality to annex. The
City does not favor the annexation of territory for which it
has no intention to provide or capability of providing
municipal services.
This annexation policy declaration is intended to and hereby
does incorporate by reference all of the standards required
and suggested by sections 10-2-401, et seq., Utah Code
Annotated, 1953.
4. The character of the community is mixed residential,
commercial and industrial. The community and the surrounding
communities in the unincorporated territory which the City
favors annexing, require the delivery of intense, high
quality, cost effective municipal -type services.

immediately on annexation the following services:
a. Police protection.
b. Planning and zoning.
c. Snow removal and street maintenance on existing streets.
d. Right to participate in municipal sponsored social and
recreational activities.
e. Garbage collection and other refuse collecting.
6. The territory which the City annexes shall receive the
following:
a. Water, sewer and storm drain services as the area is
developed. Existing water, sewer and storm drain
facilities are adequate to provide services to the
annexed territory, subject to extension of and connection
with City lines and systems.
b. Street lighting will be installed ordinarily within one
year following annexation in developed residential areas.
7. All services above described are financed by appropriations
from the general fund except water, sewer and storm drain
improvements and are financed by connection and development
fees.
8. It is not anticipated that the annexation will cause any
adverse tax consequences to residents in the City or in the
area annexed, except that there will be a slight reduction in
general services to the City residents in the present city as
the general services are expanded into the newly annexed
territory.
It is anticipated that the residents in the territory to be annexed
will experience no increase in their property tax. There may be
some reduction in special service charges imposed by the County.
Additionally, persons in the newly annexed territory may experience
reductions in their fire insurance rates and in property insurance
rates.
It is anticipated that the interests of other local jurisdictions
concerned with the annexation will not be adversely affected.
