Iowa SSB3098 amends boundary adjustment procedures between cities by petition of property owners.

Iowa SSB3098 modifies the process for boundary adjustments between cities by petition of property owners. If both city councils approve a petition, it is filed with the city development board. If one city council denies the petition three times within a year, the petition is filed with the board regardless. The board then facilitates an agreement between the cities. The bill applies only to undeveloped or unimproved land and excludes land subject to special assessments or sold at tax sales.
