Elkhorn Loses to Omaha

Well, it's a sad day in Elkhorn. The city has lost its battle to prevent Omaha from annexing it. Over 7,000 people that chose not to live in the Big 'O' have had that choice taken from them.



You can read the opinion here.



The part I found most surprising was that Omaha was allowed to create a path to Elkhorn by annexing a bunch of land between the two cities and annex Elkhorn at the same time, as shown here. That just seems wrong.



I'd like to know if any people living in Omaha are bothered by this.
