Dated: July 13, 2012 7 Timothy J. O'Malley Assistant Chief Administrative Law Judge Municipal Boundary Adjustment Unit i 3 OA-967-10 Prior Lake MEMORANDUM In ordering the annexation contained in Docket No. OA-967-10, the Chief Administrative Law Judge finds and makes the following comment: Paragraph No. 13 states the agreement shall expire on December 31, 2025. End dates or ending mechanisms are problematic in that they appear to run afoul of the act of conferring jurisdiction to the Chief Administrative Law Judge. Once jurisdiction is conferred by submission of this agreement to this office, it cannot be taken away by written consent of the parties. Jurisdiction ends when all the designated area is annexed. The issue whether jurisdiction could be "given back" by the Chief Administrative Law Judge upon written request of the parties to the agreement to mutually end their agreement has not been addressed. The parties are encouraged to consider this comment in light of any further amendments that may be otherwise necessary to this agreement for orderly annexation. T.J.O. i 4
