Bill > HB396

This bill amends the City of Acworth's charter by adopting a new official map of the city's corporate limits dated December 19, 2024. The legislation specifically updates Section 1.11(a) of the city's charter to formally recognize this new map, which will become the official representation of the city's boundaries as of January 1, 2025. The bill requires that this map be permanently retained in the city clerk's office and stipulates that certified copies of the map (whether photographic, typed, or other formats) can be used as valid evidence in legal proceedings. This update ensures an accurate and current official record of the city's geographical boundaries, which can be important for municipal governance, zoning, service delivery, and legal purposes. The bill follows standard legislative procedure by including a clause that repeals any laws in conflict with its provisions.
