The form requests the property address or parcel number, acreage, current use and zoning information, and signatures from the groups specified on the form.

The city also requires petitioners to acknowledge that a public-hearing notice sign will remain on the property during the hearing process.
Who needs it
Registered voters and resident property owners meeting the stated thresholds, or all nonresident property owners when there are no registered voters or resident property owners, may petition for annexation.
