Agreements Regarding Powers

Counties and cities are authorized to make agreements to refrain from exercising powers, including annexation and receipt of revenue.  After five (5) years, agreements to refrain from exercising powers may be renegotiated or terminated upon ninety (90) days notice.  The act explicitly allows written contracts between municipalities and owners (developers) regarding annexation, validating those in existence on the effective date of the act.
