The Park City Council voted to annex 1,200 acres of land east of the city on Thursday night.
Park City began the official process of annexing 1,200 acres at Quinn’s Junction last October, 20 years after the idea was first officially raised.
Park City Mayor Nann Worel said the annexation gives the city control over what happens to its eastern entry corridor.
“It’s been a long time coming,” she said. “The city’s always had interest in protecting our entry corridor there and we can do that best by bringing it into the municipal boundaries.”
