AI Summary
This bill repeals the existing law on annexation by cities in Idaho and replaces it with a new section that provides detailed requirements and exceptions for how cities can annex land. The key provisions include requiring cities to notify landowners, obtain consent from two-thirds of landowners representing at least 50% of the area proposed for annexation, hold public hearings, and adopt a written annexation plan. The bill also establishes exceptions for lands with implied consent, enclaved lands, and certain types of land like highways, fairgrounds, airports, recreational areas, railroad rights-of-way, and agricultural or forest lands. The bill provides for judicial review of city-initiated annexations and sets an effective date of July 1, 2024.
