(a) Pursuant to Wisconsin Statute 59.69(7), whenever any area which has been subject to the Kenosha County Zoning ordinance petitions to become part of a village or city, the regulations imposed by this ordinance shall continue in effect, without change, and shall be enforced by such village or city until such regulations have been changed by official action of the governing body of such village or city, except that in the event an ordinance of annexation is contested in the courts, the County Zoning Ordinance shall prevail and the County shall have jurisdiction over the zoning in the area affected until ultimate determination of the court action.

(b) Reserved for future use.

(c) When any lands previously under the jurisdiction of this ordinance have been finally removed from the jurisdiction of this ordinance by reason of annexation to an incorporated municipality, and after the regulations imposed by this ordinance have ceased to be effective as provided in subsection (a), the County Board may pursuant to Wisconsin Statute section 59.69(5)(e)7, on the recommendation of the Department of Planning and Development adopt such amendatory ordinances as shall remove or delete such annexed lands from the official zoning map or written descriptions without following any of the procedures provided for amendment or change to the ordinance as noted in Wisconsin Statute 59.69(5)(e)1 through 6, and such amendatory ordinances shall become effective upon passage and publication. A copy of such ordinance shall be forwarded by the County Clerk to the Clerk of each town in which the lands affected were previously located. Nothing in this section shall be construed to nullify or supersede those provisions set forth in Wisconsin Statute section 80.64. [Code § 12.02-14.]
