The bill HB488 seeks to expand the corporate limits of the City of Foley in Baldwin County, Alabama, by annexing several tracts of land, specifically identified as Tracts 1 through 4, which include portions of the Angie Baldwin Subdivision and Kirkland's Camp. The bill provides detailed legal descriptions of these tracts, outlining their boundaries and notable landmarks to ensure clarity regarding the areas being incorporated into the city. Additionally, a map of the proposed annexation will be made available for public inspection in the Office of the Judge of Probate in Baldwin County. The bill introduces new legal language that specifies the descriptions of the new tracts and the procedures for the annexation process.

Furthermore, the bill mandates a referendum election to allow residents to vote on the proposed changes to the city limits. The election will be organized by the Judge of Probate, who will set the date and ensure it occurs within a specified timeframe. Voters will be asked whether they support the adoption of the act, with the City of Foley covering all associated costs. If the majority votes in favor, the annexation will take effect immediately; if not, the act will be repealed. The bill includes new legal language regarding the election process and the responsibilities of the Judge of Probate, but no deletions from existing law are noted.
