197. Property Annexation
Homeowners and landowners in an area proposed for annexation shall have the right to vote to approve or reject the annexation, including infill development zones (IDZ), regardless of the population of the county. No annexation can occur within 45 days of any election. In any city with a population of over 250,000, any neighborhood can elect to de-annex and reincorporate as a new city – for any reason – provided they receive at least 50% plus one vote of those voting in a regular election and living within the defined de-annexation boundaries.
