Property owners may request voluntary annexation into the City of Dunedin from an unincorporated area of Pinellas County. Any property within the Dunedin Planning Area (DPA)(PDF, 1MB) is eligible for voluntary annexation. Often times, the reason for annexation is to receive City water and/or sewer services but this may not be the only reason. There is no fee to annex into the City of Dunedin so if you are interested in voluntary annexation, please contact us.
Not Sure if Annexation is Right for You?
Deciding whether or not it would be beneficial to annex can be a confusing process. There are a number of taxes, fees, and service charges that can change with annexation, and residents may not know how to estimate the financial impact of these changes. To help you decide, Forward Pinellas has designed a worksheet to help you obtain some of this information, by estimating the difference in annual taxes and fees that you would pay before and after annexation. To access the worksheet, please visit the Forward Pinellas website.
Application for Annexation
If you decide to annex, please complete the following application. Annexation of property into the City of Dunedin also requires a Land Use Plan (LUP) Amendment and Zoning District Designation (from County to City). Staff will assist in determining the most appropriate land use plan and zoning district designations for the property being annexed.
