414.038 EFFECT OF ANNEXATION ON TOWNSHIP ROADS.
Whenever a municipality annexes property abutting one side of a township road, the segment
of road abutting the annexed property must be treated as a line road and is subject to section
164.14. Whenever a municipality annexes the property on both sides of a township road, that
portion of road abutting the annexed property ceases to be a town road and becomes the obligation
of the annexing municipality. This section does not prohibit the annexing municipality from
contracting with the township for continued maintenance of the road. Any portion of a township
road that ceases to be a township road pursuant to this section may still be counted as a township
road for the road-and-bridge account revenues for the year in which the annexation occurs.
