Bill Summary

AN ACT To amend an Act to incorporate the City of Tucker, approved May 12, (Ga. L. 2015, p. 3897), as amended, so as to provide for the annexation of certain territory into the boundaries of the city; to provide for related matters; to provide for a referendum; to provide for a contingent effective date and automatic repeal; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to expand the City of Tucker's boundaries by annexing specific tracts and parcels of land, as described by census blocks and districts from the 2020 United States decennial census, within DeKalb County, Georgia. The term "VTD" refers to the geographical boundaries defined by the U.S. Census Bureau for the 2020 census, and individual numeric designations within a VTD represent specific census blocks. For the annexation to be approved, a special election will be held on the Tuesday after the first Monday in November 2026, where voters in the affected territory will vote "Yes" or "No" on whether to approve the annexation. If a majority votes "Yes," the annexation will become effective on January 1, 2027; otherwise, the bill will be automatically repealed and the annexation will not occur. The City of Tucker will be responsible for the costs of this election.
