Bluffton council voted 5-1 (Dick McGarrity voting no) giving the mayor authority to sign a petition in the village's behalf to support a land annexation involving the North Dixie Highway area, south of the corporation limits. This action took place at the Sept. 27 council meeting.
The village owns land in the area being petitioned for annexation into the village and is therefore allowed one vote in the matter. Should 51 percent of the property owners sign such a petition and bring it before council, and then council would act on the petition.
