The bill HB488 aims to modify and expand the corporate limits of the Town of Cusseta in Chambers County, Alabama, by introducing new legal language that designates and describes multiple parcels of land. Specifically, the bill inserts definitions for a series of parcels, including Parcel 1 through Parcel 34, with detailed measurements and geographical references for each. For instance, Parcel 1 contains approximately 452.1 acres, while Parcel 30 encompasses the South half of Section 25. The bill ensures clarity in the boundaries and ownership of these parcels, which is crucial for land management and future development.
In addition to the insertions, the bill includes a LESS AND EXCEPT clause to clarify exclusions from the described properties, ensuring that stakeholders understand which portions of land are not included in the conveyance. While the text does not specify any deletions from current law, it emphasizes the importance of accurate legal descriptions for property records and transactions. Furthermore, a map illustrating the proposed territory alterations will be available for public inspection, and the act is set to take effect immediately upon passage, which occurred in both the House and Senate in April 2025.
