The Tucson City Council has signed off on the largest residential annexation in recent history, bringing in about 652 acres on the southeast side into the city limits.
The council unanimously voted in favor of bringing in roughly 3,100 residents located southeast of South Swan and East Valencia roads and north of the Los Reales landfill, with estimates that the annexation will bring in a combined $25 million in revenues over the next decade. Part of the annexed area is adjacent to areas that are already part of the city, including on the east and south sides.
