The ACCA Board of Directors is composed of three executive officers, the ACCA’s past presidents still serving in county government and a representative from each of the association’s 12 established districts.
The association’s 12 district representatives for the next year are Colbert County Commissioner Tyrus Mansell, Madison County Commissioner Tom Brandon, Cherokee County Probate Judge and Commission Chair Tim Burgess, Marshall County Commissioner Lee Sims, Jefferson County Commissioner Sheila Tyson, Marengo County Commissioner Calvin Martin, Blount County Commissioner Allen Armstrong, Chambers County Commissioner Sam Bradford, Elmore County Commission Chair Bart Mercer, Conecuh County Commissioner Leonard Millender, Pike County Commissioner Russell Johnson, and Mobile County Commissioner Connie Hudson.

Each leader on this newly assembled team has earned the respect and trust of county officials and employees across the state. These leaders are aptly prepared for the significant responsibility of serving county government across Alabama, and I’m optimistic about what we can accomplish this year under the new leadership.”
