does St. George has standing to sue to restore the petition boundaries? BR gobbled up quite a few areas since the original vote.


I'm pretty sure those will be reversed, and once the new city government is up and running, those places will have to petition to leave St. George and get that approved to go back to being unincorporated, and then will have to re-petition BTR to annex them into their city.

Yep. And St. George doesn’t have to grant it, especially for businesses that Baton Rouge had to use make believe access so that it was directly adjacent.

I’m betting none of those businesses go through with the process.

Most of the areas that Baton Rouge grabbed were retail. It will be interesting if the new St. George group will try to give the Mall, casino, and Seigen Place sweetheart deals to keep them in the city.
