The bill amends Section 11-24-2 of the Code of Alabama 1975, specifically addressing county subdivision regulations. It introduces a limitation on the exemption period for transferring land to an immediate family member, reducing it to 24 months. Additionally, it specifies that counties with local laws requiring land division by recorded plat are exempt from this regulation. The bill also includes various technical revisions to update the existing legal language to current standards.

Key changes in the bill include the insertion of language that mandates the completion of construction in accordance with the chapter and the requirement for developers to obtain a permit before selling or transferring lots. It also clarifies that if a property is sold to someone other than an immediate family member within 24 months of an exempted transfer, the subdivision regulations will apply. The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2026.
