Title
Cullman County, elected officials authorized to participate in Employees' Retirement System, exceptions, supernumerary program phased out, const. amend.
Description

Under existing law, elected public officials are prohibited from participating in the Employees' Retirement System. Because of the prohibition, certain elected officials are granted supernumerary status when they are retired from public office.

This bill would propose an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, which would phase out the current supernumerary program for certain elected officials in Cullman County and would allow elected or appointed Cullman County officials, as defined, to participate in the State Employees' Retirement System.
