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...

and contracts; state action immunity; confidentiality of records; additional duties. (a) The
Legislature declares that collaboration among public payers, private health carriers, third
party purchasers, and providers to identify appropriate service delivery systems and reimbursement
methods in order to align incentives in support of integrated and coordinated health care
delivery is in the best interest of the public. Collaboration pursuant to this article is

contemplates the foreseeable displacement of competition, such that any anti-competitive effect
may be attributed to the state's policy to displace competition in the delivery of a coordinated
system of health care for the public benefit. In furtherance of...

of the Legislature by the passage of this part to authorize the county to levy and provide
for the collection of, in addition to all other taxes authorized by law, except as provided

22-30F-2
Section 22-30F-2 Legislative findings; purpose and intent of chapter; establishment
of revolving loan program for voluntary remediation of environmentally contaminated areas.
(a) The Legislature finds that rural and urban property in Alabama may have areas of contamination
which may be addressed via the Alabama Land Recycling and Economic Redevelopment Act, Sections
22-30E-1 through 22-30E-13. The Legislature further finds that encouraging the voluntary remediation
and redevelopment of such properties is in the public interest. (b) The Legislature finds
that industries and developers often give preference to previously unused greenfield sites
over previously used property due largely to concerns over the financial and environmental
liabilities which may be incurred in acquiring such previously used property for reuse and
redevelopment. The Legislature further finds that the appropriate reuse and redevelopment
of properties which are contaminated, or perceived to be contaminated is in...

37-16-2
Section 37-16-2 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature finds and declares the following:
(1) More advanced communication capabilities, broadband facilities, and services are needed
in many rural and underserved areas of the state. (2) Electric providers in those rural and
underserved areas are capable of providing infrastructure for such advanced communications
capabilities and providing, directly or indirectly, broadband facilities or services. (3)
The investment in and development of advanced communications capabilities for providing broadband
facilities and services are necessary to better serve the public in those rural and underserved
areas. (4) The continued lack of advanced communication capabilities, broadband facilities,
and services in rural and underserved areas deprives citizens residing in these areas from
access to opportunities such that the state needs to take action to correct and eliminate
these discrepancies. (5) It is the public policy of this state to encourage...
