If City Council does not accept the ordinance within 120 days of its first consideration, the annexation will be considered rejected. This petition was filed with Franklin County on September 5, 2023. City Council approved a service ordinance addressing the site on September 11, 2023. Franklin County approved the annexation on October 10, 2023 and the City Clerk received notice on October 10, 2023.
