Section 45-39A-50 Local option election authorized for sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages.
(a)(1) The Legislature of Alabama is cognizant of Opinion of the Justices No. 376, 825 So.
2d 109 (Ala. 2002), which states on page 115 that a local bill for Cherokee County "purporting
to allow by local law the creation of a traffic in alcohol that does not presently exist in
smaller municipalities in Cherokee County, does not fit within the ambit of the last paragraph
of Section 104 permitting the Legislature to pass local laws regulating or prohibiting such
traffic." The effect of this Opinion of the Justices is to greatly limit situations in
which local laws may be enacted regarding alcoholic beverages. This opinion was, in part,

over something that already exists." While respecting the constitutional authority granted
to the Alabama Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution of Alabama of 1901,...

"purporting to allow by local law the creation of a traffic in alcohol that does not
presently exist in smaller municipalities in Washington County, does not fit within the ambit
of the last paragraph of Section 104 permitting the Legislature to pass local laws regulating
or prohibiting such traffic." The effect of this Opinion of the Justices is to greatly

in part, was based upon a determination that, "Generally, 'regulate' implies the exercise

body disagrees with the conclusion reached by the court concerning Section 104....

of Alabama and the health and safety of the citizens of this state are in jeopardy. In accordance
with the previous declaration of Legislature contained in Act 513 of the Regular Session of
the 1975 Alabama Legislature it is the declared intent of this Legislature to insure that
quality medical services continue to be available at reasonable costs to the citizens of the

physicians and other health care providers which otherwise would not be considered necessary,
and that the spiraling costs and decreasing availability of essential medical services caused
by the threat of such litigation constitutes a danger to the health and...
