Expansion of American Canyon city limits takes shape, sees some opposition

American Canyon is poised to annex another 87 acres of unincorporated land just to the north after a unanimous vote by Napa County’s Local Agency Formation Commission this month.

The soon-to-be annexed area includes Paoli Loop, an exit off state Highway 29, and its offshoot Watson Lane, which is home to a dozen families who have lived on the backcountry road for generations, eluding city limits until now.
