47. When a territory is annexed to a municipality, the members of the council and officers of the corporation of such municipality remain in office and form the council and the officers of the municipality as constituted by the annexation.

For the purposes of determining whether a person qualifies as an elector or candidate at an election or as a voter at a referendum in the annexing municipality, any period during which, before the annexation, that person was domiciled, owned an immoveable or occupied a place of business in the annexed territory shall be counted as if it had begun in the annexing municipality provided it includes the date of annexation and continued without interruption in that municipality.

The remainder of the municipality, in case of the erection or annexation of part of its territory, continues to form a separate municipality under its own name, or under another name, in conformity with article 52, if it conforms to the conditions required for constituting such a municipality. The members of the council and the officers and employees of the corporation then in office continue to perform their duties as such, subject to this Code and any other law applicable.
