Summary

The measure forces tiny pieces of land that are not part of any city—called unincorporated islands—in certain Utah counties to become part of the surrounding municipality on July 1, 2027. It also lets county councils shift accounting duties away from the auditor and requires final plats to show non‑contiguous boundaries. The changes aim to simplify annexations, improve notice to landowners, and modernize county administrative processes.
