IN SR0065

Urges the Legislative Council to assign an interim study committee to examine extraterritorial jurisdiction granted to municipalities under IC 36-9-2-19

Addresses municipal authority to regulate conduct on property up to 10 miles outside their corporate boundaries

Raises concern that Indiana citizens living outside municipal boundaries have no representation in the municipal bodies that adopt ordinances affecting them

Notes that many of these regulatory powers are also held by other state and local government units, creating redundant authority

Calls for study of the impact of this overlapping jurisdiction on non-municipal residents and businesses
