Title

Russell County; distribution of county share of state gasoline excise tax to municipalities in county, repealed

Summary

HB422 repeals the 1969 law that directed part of Russell County's share of the state gasoline tax to its municipalities, with the change taking effect October 1, 2025.

What This Bill Does

The bill repeals Act No. 859 from 1969, which allowed distributing a portion of Russell County's gasoline tax receipts to incorporated municipalities in the county. After October 1, 2025, that statutory distribution would no longer be authorized under the repealed law, so those municipalities would not receive that portion of funds under that act. The bill does not specify a replacement funding arrangement.

Who It Affects

• Russell County government — would no longer distribute a portion of the county's gasoline tax receipts to municipalities under the repealed law (effective after 2025).
• Incorporated municipalities in Russell County — would stop receiving the targeted portion of the county's state gasoline tax receipts after the effective date.

Key Provisions

• Repeals Act No. 859 of the 1969 Regular Session, which provided for distribution of Russell County's share of the state gasoline excise tax to the county's incorporated municipalities.
• States that the repeal takes effect on October 1, 2025.
