Title
Lincoln, certain property deannexed
Summary

HB15 would deannex specific parcels from the City of Lincoln by changing the city’s boundary to remove two designated parcels in Talladega County.

What This Bill Does

The bill alters the boundary lines to remove Parcel 1 and Parcel 2 from the City of Lincoln's corporate limits. It provides the exact description of the parcels to be removed, including parts of Kewanwee Shores and the W.A. Henderson Subdivision. A map showing the removed territory will be on file in Talladega County, and the deannexation would take effect immediately after the governor signs the bill into law.

Who It Affects
  • Property owners within the two parcels to be removed would be deannexed from the City of Lincoln and would fall under unincorporated Talladega County.
  • The City of Lincoln would lose jurisdiction over those parcels, and Talladega County (and county government) would assume governance for those areas.
Key Provisions
  • The boundary lines are altered to remove Parcel 1 (Kewanwee Shores areas) and Parcel 2 (Lots 5-6 of W.A. Henderson Subdivision and a surrounding land strip) from the City of Lincoln.
  • A map showing the removed territory must be filed with the Judge of Probate in Talladega County, and the act becomes effective immediately after passage and governor approval.
