The bill pertains to Cherokee County and involves an amendment to Section 45-10-201 of the Code of Alabama 1975. The amendment transfers the duties of the license commissioner to the revenue commissioner of Cherokee County. The bill includes the insertion of the term "Enrolled" at the beginning, indicating that the bill has been passed by both houses of the legislature. It also includes the deletion of references to the "Courthouse" and "Probate Judge," replacing them with "Revenue Commissioner." Additionally, the bill corrects the word "insure" to "ensure" and changes the payment frequency for clerks and assistants from "monthly" to "biweekly."

The bill specifies that the duties of the license commissioner will not include the renewal of driver licenses or the issuance or renewal of business, hunting, or fishing licenses. These insertions clarify the scope of the license commissioner's responsibilities. The bill also makes technical revisions to update the existing code language to the current style. The act is supplemental to any existing laws related to the operation of the Office of the Cherokee County License Commissioner and will become effective on July 1, 2023, upon passage and approval by the Governor, or if it otherwise becomes law. The bill was passed by the House on April 13, 2023, and by the Senate on May 4, 2023.
