12-535.   Contractual agreement to guarantee apportionment of costs of
improvements.

The governing body of any city annexing land pursuant to K.S.A. 12-520 or
12-521, and amendments thereto, may enter into contractual agreements with
the owners of land proposed to be annexed to guarantee the apportionment of
the costs of improvements made in the area to be annexed between the city
at large and the area to be annexed. The term of such agreements shall not
exceed 10 years. In the event the city apportions the costs of
improvements in a manner contrary to the contractual agreement, the owners
of land may bring an action in the district court for deannexation, such
action shall be subject to the provisions of K.S.A. 12-533.

     
This section shall not preclude the formation of a benefit district to
make such improvements upon petition by landowners in the area to be annexed.
