St. Clair County, mayors of participating municipalities may participate in Employees' Retirement System, local constitutional amendment

HB 90 proposes a constitutional amendment to allow mayors of municipalities in St. Clair County that already participate in Alabama's Employees' Retirement System to join the system under the same terms as other employees. It specifically permits current mayors at ratification to purchase service credit for their time in office. The amendment would require voter approval via statewide election under Alabama law. This change directly affects mayors in St. Clair County municipalities already enrolled in the retirement system, without altering existing eligibility rules for other employees.
