Surprise City Council approval of the less disputed Enclave at Paloma Creek annexation May 18 added nearly 5.5 acres to Surprise over the objections of some Maricopa County residents.
The annexed area is dubbed Enclave at Paloma Creek III. Previously annexed in 2019, Enclave at Paloma sits on more than 200 acres off the northeast corner of 163rd Avenue and Happy Valley Road.
The Enclave III annexation is an “end cap” just east of 153rd Avenue and Paloma Creek’s previous easternmost boundary, unlike Enclave IV — which was proposed on 10 acres north of the development’s current northern boundary. The Surprise City Council unanimously approved the annexation.
