HB2218 expands the annexation powers of certain Missouri cities, allowing them to annex areas up to four miles from their boundaries.
HB2218 modifies Missouri law to allow specific cities to annex areas up to four miles from their existing boundaries, instead of the current two miles. This applies to cities with populations between 16,000 and 18,000, located in counties with populations between 9,900 and 11,000, and having a county seat with populations between 600 and 1,000. The bill also outlines the process for annexation, including public hearings and the handling of objections. The annexation must be contiguous and compact, excluding areas connected only by narrow strips of property.
