Delegation backs bill authorizing city-level enforcement of scrap-tire law
Summary
Members voted to give House Bill 145 a favorable report, authorizing the city of Mobile to enforce the Alabama Scrap Tire and Environmental Quality Act within city limits.
The Mobile County legislative delegation voted to support House Bill 145, a proposal to give the city of Mobile authority to enforce the Alabama Scrap Tire and Environmental Quality Act within municipal boundaries.
Representative Clark told the delegation that the act exists and that HB145 would “grant the city of Mobile the authority to enforce the scrap tire laws in the city of Mobile.” Clark said she had secured multiple cosponsors and briefly referenced prior discussions at a Farm Federation meeting. The delegation moved, seconded, and approved a favorable report on the bill by voice vote; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.
No implementing agreement, staffing plan for enforcement, funding source, or effective date was discussed on the record during the session.
