Canfield Approves Type 2 Annexation for Upscale Housing Development
What happened
Residents of Canfield gathered to discuss the Type 2 annexation of 11 acres located at the city's northwest corner, which was purchased by On Mark Communities LLC. City attorney Fortunato explained that in a Type 2 annexation, the annexed land is shared between the city and the township. The city would control zoning and supply services, while the township would receive property taxes on the improved land, and the city would receive income taxes.
