The bill amends Section 45-8-110 of the Code of Alabama 1975 to adjust the compensation structure for members of the board of registrars in Calhoun County. Specifically, it stipulates that each member will receive an additional $15 per day for attendance at authorized meetings, with the payment to be made from the county general fund. The bill also allows the Calhoun County Commission to increase this additional compensation through a resolution.
Furthermore, the bill addresses potential constitutional issues regarding compensation increases for incumbent office holders. If the new compensation structure results in an increase that is prohibited by the Alabama Constitution or other laws, the increase will be treated as an expense allowance until the next term of office, at which point it will be incorporated into the official compensation. The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2025.
