TO: ALL PERSONS, FIRMS, AND CORPORATIONS making sales at retail and purchasing tangible personal property for use, storage, or other consumption in the Town of McIntosh, Alabama, and its police jurisdiction (located in Washington County).

Sections 11-51-200, et seq., Code of Alabama 1975, authorize and empower municipalities to levy true sales and use tax identical to the State Sales and Use Tax Laws except for the rates of tax and require the Alabama Department of Revenue upon request of the municipality to collect the tax.
