SB124

Kansas SB124 restricts unilateral annexations by cities and expands landowners' rights to challenge such annexations.

Kansas SB124 amends state law to impose restrictions on unilateral annexations by cities and expands the causes of action for landowners to challenge such annexations. The bill prohibits cities from annexing narrow corridors of land solely to gain access to noncontiguous tracts and mandates that landowners can challenge annexations in district court if their land is annexed. The bill also outlines specific conditions under which land can be annexed and repeals existing sections of the Kansas Statutes Annotated.
