Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to annexation; repealing a provision that prevents landowners from filing objections to a proposed annexation when a portion of the annexed area's perimeter is contiguous with the corporate limits of an annexing city or town; specifying applicability; and providing for an effective date.
AI Summary
This bill repeals a specific provision within Wyoming law, W.S. 15-1-406(c), which currently prevents landowners from formally objecting to a proposed annexation by a city or town if any part of the area being annexed shares a border with the existing city limits. In simpler terms, this bill removes a barrier that stops landowners from voicing their opposition to annexation in certain situations, specifically when the annexed land is already adjacent to the town. This change will apply to any annexation processes that begin under a different law, W.S. 15-1-404, on or after July 1, 2026, and the bill itself will become effective on that same date.
