This bill proposes an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 2022, specifically concerning Houston County. It seeks to allow individuals who are not over the age of 75 at the time of qualifying for election or appointment to be eligible to be elected or appointed as the Judge of Probate of Houston County. The current constitutional provision that sets an age limit for this position would be overridden by this amendment.
The bill outlines the process for the proposed amendment to be placed on the ballot for an election. It requires the appropriate election official to assign a ballot number and provide a description of the amendment for voters. The amendment will become valid as part of the Constitution of Alabama of 2022 if it receives a majority vote from the qualified electors. The bill also includes an insertion marking the passage of the bill by the Senate on April 30, 2024.
