The mayor or council may at any time request that the planning commission hold public hearings on and adopt a land use plan for any area which might reasonably be expected to be annexed to the city at some future time, as provided in state law. The planning commission shall also, at the time of presenting the land use plan for the area to the council, make a recommendation whether or not, in their judgment, such annexation would be in the best interest of the city and the persons in the area to be annexed. (Ord. 1736-90 § 9, 1990.)
