St. Clair County, cost-of-living payment
HB 223 authorizes St. Clair County to provide cost-of-living adjustments or lump-sum payments to former county sheriffs or revenue commissioners serving in honorary or part-time "supernumerary" roles. This would mirror the same payments currently given to county retirees under the State Employees' Retirement System, but only if the county commission has approved similar payments for those retirees. Payments would be funded from the county's general fund and require annual approval by the commission, just like retiree payments. The bill takes effect June 1, 2025, and applies solely to St. Clair County's former officials in specified roles.
