Saratoga plans 700-plus acre annexation

(Daily Herald) City Council members in Saratoga Springs prepared for a new addition to their boundaries on Tuesday, an annexation of more than 700 acres with a potential of more than 4,300 residential, business and other units.

The Teguayo Project is on the south side of the Saratoga Springs city boundaries in unincorporated Utah County.

"The entire property is currently within Utah County and will be annexed into the city," said Jim McNulty, Saratoga Springs planning director. "However, this property is identified within the city's current annexation boundary area."

The project has been in the planning and discussion stages for several years now. Dyno Nobel operates a research and development plant in the area, but Dyno Nobel representative Robert Bingham said they originally put the plant out there in the 1960s because there was nothing but cattle and sheep on that side of Utah Lake.
