Annexation • Purpose • To provide urbanizing areas with municipal services and to exercise regulatory authority necessary to protect public health and safety. • Means of ensuring that residents and business outside a city’s corporate limits who benefit from access to the city’s facilities and services share the tax burden associated with constructing and maintaining those facilities and services. • To secure tax base or utility revenue sources. • Imposition of land use controls may also be used as a growth management technique to implement a comprehensive plan.
