    §  714.  Annexation after election approving proposition.  1. Upon the
  filing of the certificate or  certificates  of  election  approving  the
  proposition  together  with the notice of entry of a final judgment of a
  court or of the approving orders of the governing boards of the affected
  local governments, the governing board or boards of the local government
  or governments to which such territory is to be annexed shall  forthwith
  by  local  law,  and  without  any  hearing thereon, annex to such local
  government the territory described in the petition. In  the  case  of  a
  municipality  consisting  of  wards,  councilmanic  districts  or  other
  subdivisions from which representation on any elective board or body  is
  selected,  such  local  law  shall  designate  the  wards,  councilmanic
  districts or other such  subdivisions  within  which  the  territory  so
  annexed  shall  be  included,  which  local law shall be adopted without
  referendum notwithstanding any inconsistent general,  special  or  local
  law.
    2.  A  local  law annexing territory to a local government pursuant to
  this section shall specify the  date  on  which  such  annexation  shall
  become  effective,  giving due regard to the taxable status dates of all
  the local governments to which and  from  which  such  territory  is  so
  annexed  and  to  the  fiscal  years of such local governments for which
  taxes, special ad valorem levies or  special  assessments  are  imposed.
  Such  date shall be no earlier than the date of filing such local law in
  the office of the secretary of state.
