Title: Alabaster, corp. limits, alt.
Summary: SB249 expands the City of Alabaster’s boundaries by annexing three specific tracts in Shelby County into the city limits.
What This Bill Does
The bill alters and extends Alabaster's boundary to include Tracts 1–3 described in the act, bringing these parcels into the city’s corporate limits and under city jurisdiction. A map showing the proposed annexation is filed with the Shelby County Judge of Probate and is available for public inspection. The annexation follows state law (Section 11-42-6(b)) and becomes effective on the first day of the third month after the Governor signs it (or once it becomes law by other means).

Who It Affects
Property owners within the three annexed tracts will become residents of the City of Alabaster and will be subject to city taxes, regulations, and services.
The City of Alabaster will gain jurisdiction over these parcels for zoning, permits, and delivery of city services.

Section 2: A map showing the proposed annexed territory is on file with the Judge of Probate in Shelby County and is open to public inspection.
Section 3: The act becomes effective on the first day of the third month after its passage and governor approval, or as otherwise provided by law.
