      Annexation or deannexation which would result in the creation of an unincorporated area with its aggregate external boundaries abutting any combination of the annexing municipality and one or more other municipalities; or#

    3. (3)

      Annexation or deannexation which would result in the creation of an unincorporated area to which the county would have no reasonable means of physical access for the provision of services otherwise provided by the county governing authority solely to the unincorporated area of the county.#

  2. (b)

    When requested by resolution of the county governing authority, a municipality is authorized to provide any service or exercise any function within an unincorporated island.

As used in this subsection, the term “unincorporated island” shall have the same meaning as set forth in Code Section 36-36-90.#

  3. (c)

    The prohibition contained in subsection (a) of this Code section shall not apply to a local Act providing for deannexation of territory from a municipality that would create an unincorporated island where another local Act annexing the same territory into another municipality takes effect on the same date as the local Act providing for deannexation of such territory.#
