Annexation Facts from the City of Peoria

Myth:
If I annex into the City, I’ll lose the right to keep my horses and other animals on my property.

Fact:
Each Peoria neighborhood has characteristics that make it unique – that’s part of what makes this a great community. The City of Peoria supports a variety of lifestyles. Horses and other livestock are allowed in many single family districts with the SR-43, SR-35 and agricultural zoning districts designed for animal activities. Additionally, when discussing annexation, Peoria City staff will work with residents to address concerns regarding land use. Peoria ordinances encourage home occupations, especially those that do not intrude on other properties.
