this section:
		(1)  "Accepting municipality" means a Type A 
general-law municipality with a population of less than 7,500 that 
does not own an electric, gas, or water utility and that is located 
in the same county with at least 75 percent of the incorporated land

	(b)  The governing bodies of an accepting municipality and a 
releasing municipality by resolution or ordinance may agree on or 
before September 1, 2005, to include in the accepting 
municipality's extraterritorial jurisdiction and exclude from the 
releasing municipality's extraterritorial jurisdiction an area 
that is in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the releasing 
municipality.
	(c)  If an agreement is not reached as provided by Subsection 
(b), the governing body of an accepting municipality by resolution 
or ordinance enacted before January 1, 2007, may include in the 
accepting municipality's extraterritorial jurisdiction and exclude 
from the releasing municipality's extraterritorial jurisdiction, 
without the releasing municipality's consent, an area that is in 
the extraterritorial jurisdiction of the releasing municipality if 
the area:
		(1)  is not, as of September 30, 2004, identified for 
annexation by the releasing municipality in the releasing 
municipality's annexation plan under Section 43.052; and
		(2)  is contiguous to the accepting municipality's 
corporate limits or extraterritorial jurisdiction as of the 
effective date of the resolution or ordinance.
	(d)  The total area that may be transferred from a releasing

	(e)  An accepting municipality that has adopted a resolution 
or ordinance under Subsection (b) or (c) may without consent annex 
the following in the manner provided by Subchapter C, Chapter 43:
		(1)  any territory located in the accepting 
municipality's extraterritorial jurisdiction on January 1, 2005; 
and
		(2)  an area transferred to the accepting 
municipality's extraterritorial jurisdiction under this section.
	(f)  An area to be transferred under this section must be
