CITIES -- Amends existing law to provide that certain city annexations may extend into and beyond the city area of impact.

CITIES

STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

This legislation clarifies the rights of private landowners who wish to be annexed by a city when the property in question is within, or contiguous to, more than one city's area of impact. Cities are increasingly disagreeing over areas of impact and related annexations. Regardless, when a piece of private property falls into more than one city's area of impact, this legislation will give the property owner the ability to choose which city he or she will be annexed by. This legislation only applies to voluntary annexations, which are those where the property owner is actively seeking to be annexed. This legislation will have no impact on any other property rights, and it will not make forced annexations easier.
