The bill amends several sections of the Code of Alabama 1975 to adjust the salaries of key officials in Elmore County, specifically the judge of probate, sheriff, and revenue commissioner. The base annual salary for the Judge of Probate is increased from $98,000 to $120,000, with the new salary structure taking effect immediately. Additionally, the sheriff's salary is raised to $120,000, with provisions for higher salaries based on prior terms served, reaching up to $150,000 for those who have served three or more full terms. The revenue commissioner's salary is also increased from $95,000 to $120,000, with the new salary to be paid in the same manner as other county employees.

Furthermore, the bill repeals the previous salary structure for the judge of probate outlined in Section 45-26-81 and ensures that all three officials will continue to receive any cost-of-living or other salary increases approved by the county commission. The act is set to become effective on October 1, 2024.
