Overview
There has been tremendous growth in Baldwin County in recent years, particularly southern Baldwin County. Several of the coastal cities have been eyeing the northern shore of Perdido and Wolf Bays for many years, including Perdido Beach. Neighboring Orange Beach has gone so far as to buy property and make plans for a private bridge connecting to a vast amount of undeveloped land on the northern shore. Spurred by the prospect of annexation into Orange Beach, the Perdido Beach Property Owners and Residents Association began laying the groundwork for an incorporation referendum in early 2008. On April 21, 2009, the residents of the community voted to incorporate, becoming Baldwin County's fourteenth municipality.[5]
