Title

Pike Road, boundary lines established to annex certain property, settlement of legal dispute with Montgomery

Summary

HB729 would redraw Pike Road's boundaries to include the area shown on an attached map and settle a long-running boundary dispute with Montgomery by de-annexing certain parcels from Pike Road.

What This Bill Does

It establishes and changes the boundary lines of the Town of Pike Road to include all territory shown on the attached map. The map is filed with the Montgomery County Judge of Probate and open for public inspection. Once enacted, the included territory becomes part of Pike Road, while the disputed annexation with the City of Montgomery is vacated and the specific parcels listed are de-annexed from Pike Road. The act also signals that companion acts will address the City of Montgomery's boundary and a tax-sharing mechanism to support the settlement, with the whole package taking effect after governor approval and these companion acts are approved.

Who It Affects

• Residents and property owners in the area shown on the attached map who will become part of the Town of Pike Road's limits.
• Owners of the parcels specifically listed as de-annexed from Pike Road (the parcels named in the bill) whose property would no longer be within Pike Road's boundaries.

Key Provisions

• The boundary lines of Pike Road are established and altered to include all territory shown on the attached plat/map.
• The proposed territory is described in a map on file with the Montgomery County Judge of Probate and accessible to the public.
• Upon enactment, the included territory is established within Pike Road; the previously disputed annexation with the City of Montgomery is vacated and the listed parcels are de-annexed from Pike Road.
• The act relies on companion acts to finalize the settlement (defining the City of Montgomery's boundaries and implementing a tax-sharing mechanism) and becomes effective upon governor approval and passage of those companion acts.
