From the nola.com link earlier quoting Rainey:
I still wonder why the Costco, Celtic Studios and that credit union on Airline Hwy which were annexed a few weeks ago does not make the petition moot? Were they not included in the legal boundaries described in the petition?
The statement by Rainey is not consistent with that earlier annexation.

The petition has a legal definition of the boundaries that would encompass the new city, and if that boundary changes as properties leave the unincorporated area, that could mean the petition is moot.

If I remember correctly, SG people have said they didn't include those properties in their original boundaries. I could be wrong though.
Also, after reading up on it more it seems that all the outparcel businesses surrounding the mall (AMC, Pluckers, Dicks, Chase Bank, etc) are all tenants of General Growth Properties. I don't think any of these restaurants and businesses have a say so because it doesn't appear that they own the property.

I saw some statements that said that SG had revised their maps removing Celtic/Costco before the petition went out. So I think they have been aware of this situation. But that begs the question, why didnt they alter their annexation borders so they could prevent a Baton Rouge counter-attack?
