ACCA submits second filing to expand municipal participation in SSUT litigation
This past week, the Association submitted a second (and presumably final) filing to intervene in the ongoing Simplified Sellers Use Tax (SSUT) litigation, seeking to add more than 60 municipalities to the case — a group that is likely to represent the last round of requested additions. If granted, the filing will bring participation to consist of all 67 counties and 201 municipalities listed as defendants. This continued growth in engagement highlights the County Family’s commitment to defending Alabama’s constitutionally-sound SSUT program, demonstrating extraordinary collaboration and resolve as counties stand shoulder-to-shoulder with their municipal counterparts. Bravo, once again, to the County Family for answering the call and ensuring a strong, united defense on behalf of local governments across the state!
Road Supervisors Training taking place this week
This week, the Association’s biennial Road Supervisors Training will take place — and well over 100 county road department employees are registered to participate. Scheduled for Wednesday and Thursday, the educational event will provide participants with a detailed look at road department responsibilities, challenges, and best practices related to effective leadership, workforce management, operational planning and workplace safety. A complete training agenda can be found here.
