Section 11-49B-1 Declaration of purpose and legislative findings. The Legislature finds that
it is estimated that by the year 2040, 40 percent of the economy of this nation, both people

provides this region with an unprecedented opportunity to attract new business both service
based and manufacturing. It, therefore, is the intent of this chapter to take advantage of
this growth opportunity by providing for a unified, coordinated, centrally orchestrated, genuinely
