Under existing law, a municipality may annex property by statutory procedures or by local law.
Additionally, Section 11-44B-24 of the Code of Alabama 1975, authorizes any Class 4 municipality organized in accordance with Chapter 44B of Title 11 of the Code of Alabama 1975, to annex unincorporated territory that has been enclosed within the corporate limits of the municipality for a period of one year or more.
This bill would provide that any municipality in Alabama may use these same procedures available to these Class municipalities to annex unincorporated property enclosed within the corporate limits of the municipality.
