JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Unincorporated areas divided by railroad right-of-way.

- When there was no evidence that railroad right-of-way dividing two large unincorporated areas had been annexed to the city by a local statute of the General Assembly or under applicable general statutes, it was an unincorporated strip of land and the two unincorporated areas it traversed formed an unincorporated area in excess of fifty acres which the city could not lawfully annex by an ordinance passed under O.C.G.A. Art. 6, Ch. 36, T. 36. Culpepper v. City of Cordele, 212 Ga. App. 890, 443 S.E.2d 642 (1994).
