What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill changes certain annexation notice requirements and also changes the
responsibility to receive, file, and distribute certain documents from the secretary of
state to the secretary of administration. In general, the bill also reduces the number
of copies of some of these documents that must be filed or distributed from 7, 6, 4, or
2 copies to one copy.
Under current law, annexations in a county with a population of 50,000 or more
are not valid unless the person publishing the notice of annexation mails a copy of
the notice to various units of government and the Department of Administration.
Under the bill, the population requirement is deleted so the notice requirement
applies to all annexations.
