This bill pertains specifically to Conecuh County and outlines new provisions for the selection and compensation of the chair of the county commission. Effective June 1, 2025, the county commission will select its chair through a majority vote, which is a new procedural requirement. Additionally, the chair will receive a monthly expense allowance of $500, which is an insertion into the current law, and this allowance will be paid from the county's general fund, supplementing any existing compensation.
The bill also includes a provision for the repeal of these changes at the end of the current term of the county commission, specifically on November 14, 2028. This means that the new selection process and expense allowance will only be in effect for a limited time, after which the previous laws will be reinstated. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
