to the date fixed for the hearing, any interested person may file with the

petition or ordinance, as the case may be, is not contiguous to the
annexing municipality, (2) that the petition is not signed by the requisite
number of electors or property owners of record, (3) that the description
of the territory contained in the petition or ordinance, as the case may
be, is inadequate, or (4) that the objector's land is located on the
perimeter of such territory, that he does not desire annexation, and that
exclusion of his land will not destroy the contiguity of such described
