(A) All territory to be annexed to the city shall, prior to being considered by the Madera Local Agency Formation Commission, be prezoned by amendment of the official zoning map and shall be automatically in effect upon the certificate of completion for annexation of the area into the city being recorded by the County Clerk.
(B) Prezoned land shall carry a "PZ" prefix before the zone classification(s) and shall be so designated on the official zoning map. The zone(s) established by prezoning shall become effective and the "PZ" prefix shall be automatically removed when the property is annexed. Failure to complete the annexation process for any reason shall render any prezoning zone classification(s) on the official zoning map to be null and void, and the zoning designation(s) shall be removed for the official zoning map. The subject property will be considered to be not prezoned, not within the city limits of the City of Madera, and instead subject to the zoning ordinance of the County of Madera.
