Sec. 7-1-25.
Any unoccupied territory, lying along the boundary line
between 2 adjoining municipalities, may be excluded from one of the
adjoining municipalities and annexed to the other adjoining municipality,
as follows:
The corporate authorities of the excluding municipality shall adopt an
ordinance providing for such exclusion, and the corporate authorities of
the annexing municipality shall adopt an ordinance providing for the
annexation of this territory. Upon the adoption of these ordinances, the
territory is thereby excluded from the one municipality and annexed to the
other. The chief executive officer of each municipality thereupon shall
file for recordation an accurate map of the excluded or added territory, as
the case may be, together with a certified copy of the ordinance for
exclusion or annexation with the recorder of the county in which
the excluded or added territory, as the case may be, is situated.
