(a) Five years following the annexation of any land pursuant to K.S.A.
12-520 or 12-521, and amendments thereto, or, where there has been
litigation relating to the annexation, five years following the conclusion
of such litigation, the board of county commissioners shall call a hearing
to consider whether the city has provided the municipal services as
provided in the timetable set forth in the plan in accordance with K.S.A.
12-520b or 12-521, and amendments thereto. The board of county
commissioners shall schedule the matter for public hearing and shall give
notice of the date, hour and place of the hearing to: (1) The city; and (2)
any landowner in the area subject to the service extension plan.
(b) At the hearing, the board shall hear testimony as to the city's
extension of municipal services, or lack thereof, from the city and the
landowner. After the hearing, the board shall make a finding as to whether
or not the city has provided services in accordance with its service
extension plan. If the board finds that the city has not provided services
as provided in its service extension plan, the board shall notify the city
and the landowner that such property may be deannexed, as provided in
K.S.A. 12-532, if the services are not provided within 2 1/2
years of the date of the board's findings.
