- What if an annexation ordinance for a petition method annexation inadvertently describes an area that is larger than that contained in the petition?
An Attorney General opinion concluded that where an annexing ordinance described a larger parcel of property than that contained in the annexation petition, it is void. However, the annexation ordinance could be reenacted based upon the original annexing petition and hearing, where there was an inadvertent misdescription, as long as conditions had not materially changed to make the annexation less advantageous either to the city or property owners. AGO 53-55 No. 173. - How can a city know whether the legal description on an annexation petition is adequate?
The adequacy of a legal description of territory proposed for annexation is judged by whether a competent surveyor, either with or without the aid of extrinsic evidence, could ascertain the property in question. Long v. City of Olympia, 72 Wn.2d 85 (1967); McAlmond v. City of Bremerton, 60 Wn.2d 383 (1962). After review by the city engineer, many cities forward legal descriptions of proposed annexations to the county engineer early in the annexation process, requesting comments on adequacy.
