BOUNDARY AND ANNEXATION SURVEY
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING
INDIANA PLACES

Under Indiana Law (Ind. Code 36-4-3-7(b) enacted by the Indiana General
Assembly any ordinance described in Ind. Code 36-4-3-3; 36-4-3-4; 36-4-3-5) an
ordinance of annexation or detachment may not take effect during the year
preceding the year in which a federal decennial census is conducted. Therefore,
an ordinance of annexation or detachment may not take effect in 2019.
An ordinance which would otherwise take effect from January 1, 2019 to
December 31, 2019 legally cannot be effective until January 1, 2020 in accordance
with Indiana state law. The Census Bureau cannot process any annexations and
detachments until May 31, 2020. All ordinances that take effect on January 1,
2020 will be included in the federal decennial census.
