Title
Jackson Co., annual publication of expenditures and receipts, Act 484, 1978 Reg. Sess., repealed
Summary

SB 58 repeals the 1978 requirement for Jackson County to publish a semi-annual financial report of receipts, expenditures, and indebtedness.

What This Bill Does

If enacted, it removes the legal obligation for the Jackson County Commission to publish semi-annual financial reports. The change takes effect immediately after the bill is passed and signed by the Governor. This means Jackson County would no longer be required by law to publicly disclose those specific financial reports on a semi-annual basis.

Who It Affects
  • Jackson County Commission – no longer required to publish semi-annual reports of receipts, expenditures, and indebtedness.
  • Jackson County residents and public observers – potential reduction in publicly available county financial information due to the removal of the publication requirement.
Key Provisions
  • Repeals Act 484 of the 1978 Regular Session (Acts 1978, p. 526), which mandated the semi-annual publication by the Jackson County Commission of receipts, expenditures, and indebtedness.
  • This act becomes effective immediately following its passage and approval by the Governor.
