Provides that territory may not be disconnected from the municipality unless at least 25% of the boundary of the territory is located on the border of the municipality (now, territory may not be disconnected unless the territory is located on the border of the municipality). Provides that territory may not be disconnected if zoning and public health ordinances (instead of zoning ordinances only) will be unreasonably disrupted. Requires public notice of a petition to disconnect. Provides that taxpayers may appear and defend against the petition. Provides that the petition shall be denied if the court finds that the future development of the property may be inconsistent with the municipality's comprehensive land use plan or inconsistent with the trend of development. Provides that land that has been disconnected shall not be subdivided into lots and blocks within 5 years (instead of 1 year) from the date of disconnection.</SynopsisText></synopsis>
