Alabama Public Official Bonds
Public Officials in Alabama are required, as of May 22, 2009, to post a surety bond to the County Treasury, instead of to the State as it has been previously. County employees, member or employee of public boards or commissions, or county directors may be required to post a bond as well. The bond must be in the amount of 0.5% of the yearly budget for that official, but cannot exceed $50,000. The actual bond amount is to be determined by the county commission.
