Limited Self-Governance in Alabama
Limited Self-Governance is a restricted set of health and safety powers that voters can authorize
for their county commissions. It was established by Act 2005-200.
In counties with Limited Self-Governance, local leaders have greater ability to respond to
citizen concerns by abating certain nuisances in unincorporated areas.
