Second edition of ACCA’s “Let’s Talk About…” arriving in county inboxes this week
This week, the second installment of the Association’s new bimonthly communication piece — titled “Let’s Talk About…” — will arrive in county email inboxes. County leaders are encouraged to stay on the lookout for the arrival of the May 2025 “Let’s Talk About…” as it will feature key information on each of Alabama’s newly-enacted laws impacting county government operations. “Let’s Talk About…” is released every other month with the goal of more succinctly and consistently updating the Alabama County Family on the latest county issues and will continually deliver news through various written, verbal and visual communications — and all of the information will be housed on the County Family’s private online community. County leaders who missed the first installment of “Let’s Talk About…” may click here to view the March 2025 piece.
