Annexations

Annexation and Regional planning ensure the City of Redmond continues to actively participate in regional planning with neighboring jurisdictions, including the County. Annexation policies will enable Redmond to accommodate future growth while protecting rural and agricultural areas that lie outside the Urban Growth Area. State law mandates that for a property to annex it must be adjacent with the City. Redmond's potential areas for annexation have been pre-zoned to ease the annexation process and insure neighborhoods are incorporated seamlessly. Calling out areas that can annex into Redmond allows Redmond to add growth in a logical manner. Also, it enables Redmond to ensure residences are provided with a full range of quality urban services. Current annexation processes underway include the North East Rose Hill neighborhood.  Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about annexation.
