Solid waste utility fees; remedies for nonpayment of fees provided, penalties for failure to pay fees revised
Pending Committee Action in House of Origin
Summary
The bill revises Alabama's solid‑waste fee enforcement so counties and municipalities may only recover unpaid fees by suing the debtor, suspending service, or both, and it removes the existing misdemeanor penalty for nonpayment. It also updates the language of the solid‑waste statutes without adding new programs. The changes impact residents, businesses, and private waste collectors that use local solid‑waste services.
