City Attorney Sam Light read Ordinance No. 1443, Series 2004, and noted there are second reading amendments. Mayor Sisk called for Staff presentation. City Manager Bill Simmons reported that Staff believes as a result of the City's home rule status, confusion may exist in the application of various State Statutes pertaining to the disconnection (or d-annexation) of territory from the City. A void may exist in the procedure for disconnection from a home rule municipality such as Louisville. Ordinance No. 1443, Series 2004 is proposed to bolster the City's application procedures for disconnection. The ordinance expressly confirms the available methods of disconnection and set procedures and criteria for disconnection requests.
