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.
