Madison County Local Amendment - Private Sewer System Regulation
Madison County, Alabama
My vote power: High
What does this measure do?
Madison County would put certain private sewer systems that use public roads under state oversight of their rates. Sewer customers would still pay service bills; this amendment adds no tax.
Proposed by: Alabama Legislature (House Bill 337, Rep. Andy Whitt and others)
Rep. Whitt is a Republican from Ardmore (House District 6). Co-sponsors include Rep. Parker Moore, a Decatur Republican. The bill lets the county regulate private sewer systems.

Covered private sewer systems would stay outside this new state rate oversight; existing local agreements could still apply.
