The King County Annexation Initiative is an effort to promote annexation or incorporation of the largest remaining urban unincorporated areas. These ten areas are also referred to as potential annexation areas or PAAs (see map below). To support annexation or incorporation of the PAAs, the Annexation Initiative provides information to communities on their governance options and financial incentives to cities that annex or incorporate.
