The City of Sanford has received an Annexation Petition for the property described below. When/if the subject
property is annexed into the corporate City limits, the Sanford City Council must assign a zoning district to the
land within 60 days of the effective date of annexation (the zoning does not automatically stay the same).
Therefore, the following application for a Zoning Map Amendment/Rezoning has also been submitted to the City
of Sanford for review by the Planning Board and the City Council so that when/if the property is annexed, the
applicant may move forward with the request to assign a zoning district to the land in a timely manner. The
applicant would like to have the land annexed into the corporate City limits so that City services (public sewer,
etc.) may be utilized in developing the site.
