The bill would amend Clay County’s section of the Alabama Constitution to bar the Clay County Sheriff from the county’s supernumerary program and allow him to join the Employees' Retirement System instead, repealing a 2017 law.
It changes retirement rules for Clay County officials by allowing participation in the Employees' Retirement System on the same terms as other county employees and by prohibiting dual participation in the supernumerary program for the same service. For the Sheriff, it prohibits supernumerary participation after ratification and lets the Sheriff elect to participate in ERS; sheriffs elected after ratification must join ERS, while sheriffs serving at ratification can purchase service credit for time served and must elect within one year. The bill also repeals Act 2017-193.
