Monroe County, special county privilege license tax further provided for
HB 429 relates to Monroe County, Alabama, and modifies an existing special county privilege license tax. This bill extends the collection of the tax by removing its previous expiration clause, which was tied to the repayment of debt for a new jail and related facilities. Instead of expiring, the bill specifies that once the jail debt is paid, the tax proceeds will be deposited into the county general fund. These funds are designated for the ongoing maintenance, operation, or renovation of the Monroe County Detention Facility, or to support ambulance service or E911 within the county.
