Maddy summaryThis bill authorizes Pike County, Alabama, to collect a special sales and use tax to fund the construction, operation, and maintenance of a new county jail and judicial complex. The revenue generated will be deposited into a dedicated county fund, which the county commission can use to pay for project costs or pledge as security for bonds issued to finance the facility. Once the project is fully paid off or by October 1, 2030, whichever comes first, the tax will expire and the collected money will be split between the City of Troy and the rest of Pike County for their respective expenses. The law takes effect on October 1, 2024, and applies specifically to transactions occurring within the county's jurisdiction.

Maddy summaryThis bill establishes and amends the City of Troy Investment Trust Fund in Pike County, Alabama, to manage money originally derived from the sale of Edge Regional Medical Center. It designates the mayor or a designated city officer as the authorized representative and limits investments to safe options like U.S. securities and government-backed assets. The fund must split its annual income, paying 90 percent to the city's general fund while retaining 10 percent to grow the fund's principal, which can only be used for city expenses or specific purposes if approved by a two-thirds vote of city voters. Additionally, the bill allows the city to use the fund's retained income or principal to reimburse itself for future costs related to the medical center's sale and operations.
