Marana eyeing Pinal annexation
The Town of Marana is interested in annexing 4.7 square miles north, into Pinal County, denoted in red on the map.
Marana councilmember Patti Comerford asked her colleagues a simple question at the June 11 council study session: “How far north do we need to go, gang?”
The Town of Marana is looking to incorporate parts of southern Pinal County into its jurisdiction through annexation. Mayor Ed Honea, who described this region as “Marana’s future,” sees big potential in the companies that plan to set up shop there.
As punctuated by Comerford’s question, the discussion over how much land to the northe to annex was casual, but focused on opportunities for economic growth.
