H 4427 Annexation of certain noncontiguous areasSummary of the bill as introduced: Adds the following language to the definition of contiguity: Contiguity is not required where all areas to be incorporated have the equivalent of a population density of three hundred persons per square mile and contain the equivalent of one dwelling unit for each three acres of land within the area, and: (a)    all are located upon the same island; or (b)    the areas to be incorporated are linked together so that any one area to be incorporated is within one-half of a mile of the next closest area to be incorporated. An area annexed or otherwise obtained by an existing municipality at any time within one year prior to the filing of an incorporation petition does not destroy contiguity, and that area may be used by the incorporating area to establish contiguity as if it had not been annexed or obtained.
