Whenever a majority of the property owners of any territory lying contiguous to a city desire to annex such territory to the city, they may cause an accurate map or plat of the territory to be made under the supervision of a competent surveyor. A copy of the map or plat, certified by the surveyor, and a petition in writing signed by a majority of the property owners of such territory shall be filed in the office of the clerk of the governing body of such city.

2.

Whenever the governing body of any city deems it necessary to annex any contiguous territory to the city, the governing body may adopt a resolution declaring its intention to annex such territory. The resolution shall:

(a)

Describe the territory to be annexed; and

(b)

Order a plat of the territory to be filed in the office of the clerk of the governing body.
