Judge says Queen Creek annexation in Pinal can go forward
by Kevin Reagan | San Tan Sentinel
A Pinal County judge has dismissed an effort to invalidate a land annexation completed by the town of Queen Creek.
San Tan Valley residents filed a petition in Superior Court earlier this year attempting to thwart an ordinance the Queen Creek Town Council passed in May to annex 35 acres near Ellsworth Road and Empire Boulevard.
Court documents show the land could be developed into car dealerships and storage facilities. Plaintiffs objected to how this type of development would negatively impact their community.
