This bill proposes the repeal of Act No. 859 from the 1969 Regular Session, which currently mandates the distribution of a portion of Russell County's share of the state gasoline excise tax to the incorporated municipalities within the county. The specific legal language being removed is the provision that outlines this distribution, effectively eliminating the requirement for the county to allocate these funds to its municipalities.
The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2025, following its passage in the House on March 20, 2025, and in the Senate on April 10, 2025. The repeal aims to modify the financial framework regarding the allocation of gasoline tax revenues in Russell County, potentially allowing for a re-evaluation of how these funds are utilized at the county level.
