36-36-118. Abandonment of proposed annexation; remedies for violations of conditions.

If at any time during the proceedings the municipal corporation or applicant abandons the proposed annexation, the county shall not change the zoning, land use, or density affecting the property for a period of one year unless such change is made in the service delivery agreement or comprehensive plan and adopted by the affected city and county and all required parties. A violation of the conditions set forth in this Code section may be enforced thereafter at law or in equity until such period has expired. After final resolution of any objection, whether by agreement of the parties, act of the panel, or any appeal from the panel’s decision, the terms of such decision shall remain valid for the two-year period and such annexation may proceed at any time during the two years without any further action or without any further right of objection by the county.
