County Going To Court County Going To Court
County commissioners announce legal action to void Baytown strip annexations in Chambers County and seek a permanent injunction against further annexations. The move follows Baytown efforts to challenge Beach City’s 8,000 acre annexation and cites Baytown’s 10 foot annexation strip along FM 2354. Attorney Eugene T. Jenson prepares responses to related suits and argues the real plaintiff is the City of Baytown, with the matter tied to unresolved strip annexation legality since the Houston Pasadena case and 1969 legislature actions.
