Title

Foley, corp. limits alt.

Summary

HB564 would expand the City of Foley's boundaries by annexing two areas along US Highway 98, adding about 316.6 acres to Foley.

What This Bill Does

The bill alters Foley's boundary and corporate limits to include two specified tracts along US Highway 98 (East and West annexations). It excludes certain parcels within those tracts, resulting in a net addition of about 316.6 acres to Foley. A map of the proposed annexation must be filed and publicly available, and the measure becomes effective on the first day of the third month after the Governor signs it into law; the annexed land would then be governed by Foley city rules and services.

Who It Affects

• Property owners and residents within the two annexation tracts along US Highway 98 would become part of the City of Foley and be subject to its ordinances, services, and taxes/fees.
• The City of Foley (and its residents) would gain new land for planning, zoning, service provision, and governance; Baldwin County areas within the annexed tracts would shift from county-only jurisdiction to Foley city jurisdiction.

Key Provisions

• Alters, rearranges, and extends Foley's boundary to include two annexation tracts along US Highway 98 (East and West) with specific boundary descriptions.
• Net land added: about 316.6 acres after excluding certain parcels (265.8 acres in Tract 1 minus 24.9 acres, plus 81.8 acres in Tract 2 minus 6.1 acres).
• Excludes several parcel IDs within the proposed tracts from the annexation (specific parcel IDs listed in the bill).
• A map showing the proposed annexation is on file and publicly accessible in Baldwin County; effective date is the first day of the third month after passage and governor approval.
