Description

Under existing law, the Office of State Auditor is charged with certain responsibilities and duties including maintaining the property inventory of state property. The State Auditor also makes an appointment to each county board of registrars.

This bill would propose an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, to merge the Office of State Auditor into the Office to the State Treasurer commencing after the expiration of the term of office in January 2031. The amendment would also transfer the duty of the State Auditor to make an appointment to each local board of registrars to the State Treasurer.
