Section 11-47-14.1 Construction of port facilities by Class 1 municipalities; bonds and other
contributions. (a) Legislative findings. The Legislature of Alabama finds that the Tombigbee
Waterway will soon be completed, and the transportation opportunities afforded thereby must

Section 28-2A-3 Legislative intent. It is hereby declared the intention and the purpose of
this article to permit an election by the citizens of certain municipalities to determine
the wet or dry status of such municipalities with regard to the sale, distribution, and consumption
of alcoholic beverages within the corporate limits of such municipalities; and further that
such election shall be provided only in those municipalities which can provide safeguards
for the protection of the public welfare, health, peace, and morals of the people. In the
furtherance of the protection of the public welfare, health, peace, and morals, the Legislature
has determined that a population classification should be established to provide this method
of municipal option election only in those municipalities with a population of 1,000 or more
people within a county, it being the judgment of the Legislature that municipalities with

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
