Section 11-92B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes the following findings: (1) That
the economic development of property comprising a former military installation is of vital
importance to the life, health, and welfare of the citizens of local cities and counties affected

Section 41-10-621 Legislative findings and purpose. (a) The Legislature finds and declares
the following: (1) The State of Alabama has a great need from time to time to have access
to financing for economic development and industrial recruitment that does not involve improvements
to revenue-producing facilities. (2) It is desirable and in the public interest to establish
a state-level authority with the power to issue bonds for such general purposes. (3) The Alabama
Supreme Court has held, in effect, that only when the debt of a public corporation is payable
out of a new revenue source will such debt not be considered a debt of the state in contravention
of Section 213 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901; the State of Alabama expects to receive
in the near future new revenues from the settlement of certain litigation between the state
and the tobacco industry. (4) By the passage of this division, it is the intention of the
Legislature to: a. Provide for the creation of a special...
