What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill removes the limitation that requires the Department of

Administration (DOA) to review proposed city or village annexations of town

territory only in counties with a population of at least 50,000.

Under current law, no city or village may annex town territory that is located

in a county with a population of at least 50,000 people unless DOA reviews the

proposed annexation and offers an opinion as to whether the annexation is in the

public interest. The city or village must review DOA's advice before taking final

action on the proposed annexation.
