The bill amends the Code of Alabama 1975 to establish a minimum annual salary of $220,000 for the mayors of Class 1 municipalities, which will be set by the city council and cannot be altered during the mayor's term. The bill also includes provisions for the mayor's salary to be paid in monthly installments and supersedes any previous salary laws. Additionally, it amends Sections 11-43-80 and 11-43-86 to clarify the mayor's compensation and responsibilities, while also repealing previous laws that provided for an expense allowance and salary increases for mayors in Class 1 municipalities, including specific provisions for the Mayor of Birmingham.

Key changes include the deletion of the previous expense allowance of $1,833.33 per month, which is replaced with a new allowance of $8,000 per month for expenses related to the office. The bill also repeals Act 84-618, which provided for an expense allowance for mayors, and Section 11-43-86.1, which allowed for salary increases for mayors in Class 1 municipalities. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
