What This Bill Does
If passed, SB135 repeals Act 2016-368, removing the rules that governed how certain lodging tax proceeds were distributed in Etowah County. That means the county would no longer operate under those specific distribution provisions and would need new guidance from other laws or future legislation. The repeal would take effect immediately after the bill is passed and approved by the governor.

Who It Affects
Etowah County government and its offices that handle lodging tax revenue distribution would be affected because the previous distribution rules are being repealed.
Local lodging tax collection entities (such as hotels and other lodging providers in Etowah County) would be affected, as the framework for distributing lodging tax proceeds would be removed.

Key Provisions
Section 1 repeals Act 2016-368 (2016 Regular Session) relating to the distribution of certain lodging tax proceeds in Etowah County.
Section 2 states the act becomes effective immediately after passage and governor’s approval.
