HB 1932 - DIGEST


Finds that there exists in many of the most populous counties of the state a patchwork of small islands of urban unincorporated territory which are the direct result of past annexation and incorporation activity. These small areas present significant service inefficiencies for counties; difficulty in annexing these areas poses a barrier to achieving growth management planning goals of the surrounding or adjacent city or town.

Declares an intent to grant cities and towns the unilateral authority to annex by ordinance small urban unincorporated islands that exist within their territories.
