Title
Community development district; 2025 act repealed, which authorized annexation of certain district by a wet municipality
Summary

SB12 repeals Act 2025-294, removing the authority for a wet municipality to annex the specified community development district.

What This Bill Does

SB12 repeals Act 2025-294, which authorized annexation of the specified community development district by a wet municipality in the county. As a result, the district cannot be annexed under that act and its boundaries and governance would remain as currently set unless another law allows a different action. The repeal does not change the basic rule that a community development district in a dry county may permit the sale of alcoholic beverages within its boundaries.

Who It Affects
  • The named community development district, which would not be annexed by a wet municipality under Act 2025-294.
  • The wet municipality that would have used Act 2025-294 to annex the district, which loses that authorization.
Key Provisions
  • Section 1 repeals Act 2025-294, authorizing the annexation of the specific community development district by a wet municipality in the county.
  • Section 2 provides that the act becomes effective immediately.
