(2) Notwithstanding any other provision of ORS 222.210 to 222.310, no city shall be created under ORS 222.210 to 222.310 that contains any noncontiguous area which is separated from the rest of the territory of the city by a distance that is nowhere less than or equal to three miles. If a petition filed under ORS 222.230 (2) proposes creation of a city containing noncontiguous areas separated by a distance of more than three miles, the affected city governing bodies shall so declare at the joint convention held under ORS 222.230 (4) and shall cancel any further proceedings related to the petition. If a consolidated city with such noncontiguous areas results from an election called under ORS 222.250 or 222.275, the consolidated city shall consist only of the most populous city included in the consolidated city and those cities or unincorporated areas in which the majority of votes cast favored creation of the consolidated city and which lie not more than three miles from the contiguous area composed of the most populous city and any other city or unincorporated area in which the majority of votes cast favored creation of the consolidated city.
