AI Summary

This bill abolishes the Town of White Springs in Hamilton County, Florida, by repealing multiple historical town charters and special acts dating from 1897 to 1951, as well as several more recent laws. Specifically, the bill eliminates the municipality's legal status and transfers all of its assets and legitimate liabilities to Hamilton County. The repeal covers a total of 19 separate legislative acts that previously governed the town's operations and legal framework. By dissolving the town, all municipal property, financial resources, and outstanding obligations will now be managed by Hamilton County. The legislation will take effect immediately upon becoming law, which means the town will cease to exist as a separate legal entity, and its governance will be fully absorbed by the county government.
