Foley Voters Will Return To Civic Center For Elections

Guy Busby • March 21, 2025

Polls moved in 2020 for COVID now return to Civic Center

Foley voters will once again cast their ballots at the Civic Center for the 2025 municipal elections, returning to the location after polling stations were moved in 2020.


The municipal elections in Foley, along with most of Alabama, are scheduled for August 26, 2025. If a runoff is required for any race, it will take place on September 23, 2025.


On Monday, March 17, the Foley City Council approved the first reading of an ordinance to designate the Civic Center as the official polling place for the upcoming elections. A second reading and final vote on the ordinance will take place at a future council meeting.


During the last city election in 2020, the council moved the polling station to the Foley Event Center. The larger location in the Event Center allowed more space for social distancing during theCOVID-19 outbreak at that time.


The position of mayor and the five City Council seats will be up for election for a new four-year term.


Council members will run by district. The City Council voted earlier in March to adjust district boundaries to accommodate population changes since the last election.


The mayor’s position is elected at large throughout the city.


In 2021, the Alabama Legislature extended the terms for municipal offices by one year so that elections would not be held the same year as presidential or state elections.

The Danger of Jetties Along The Gulf Coast

By News Staff • April 20, 2025
On coastlines around the United States jetties are often used to protect harbor and inlet entrances. They are also some of the most dangerous waters for swimming. According to NOAA, jetties can contribute to increased drowning risks, especially due to the presence of rip currents and the potential for dangerous currents and changes in water depth near the structures. Jetties can also make it more difficult to enter and exit the water safely due to sharp rocks and the force of waves.
