§ 45-2-221.07. Rescission of District Designation.

The county commission may vote to rescind the designation of a historic district or preservation district if it determines that compelling and substantial supportive reasons exist and that the best interest of the county and district would be served by such action. In arriving at a decision, the county commission shall consider information received with the application for rescission, information received at the time of the district, designation, and information received from both the public and Baldwin County Historic Development Commission. If the county commission denies the application for rescission of a district designation, that district shall remain as designated and no application for rescission will be permitted within the following period of four years. A decision to rescind the district designation will abolish that district in total, not in part.
