Text
The
landowners of any tract or contiguous tracts of land aggregating five acres or more
located on a boundary of the municipality at the time of the disconnection action
may, three or more years after annexation, petition for disconnection from the
municipality if such municipality does not, upon demand, provide the same
municipal services on the same general terms and conditions as the rest of the
municipality receives. The procedure for such disconnection shall be as set forth in
parts 6 and 7 of this article, insofar as consistent with this section. To the extent
that such parts are inconsistent with this section, the provisions of this section shall
prevail when the action is based on failure of the municipality to serve an annexed
area.
