Section 37-11B-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds and determines that: (1)
There exists in the State of Alabama a continuing need to construct, improve, and invest in
rail and rail infrastructure within the state. A strong rail infrastructure promotes economic
development and employment opportunities and promotes the public good and general welfare
of the state. (2) The public purpose of this chapter is to develop a coordinated program related
to the rail infrastructure within the State of Alabama, including, but not limited to, the
construction of such additional rail lines or tracks as may be necessary or advisable, the
maintenance and improvement of the existing rail infrastructure, and the prudent use of state
funds to take advantage of any opportunities for federal funding assistance that may be available.

Section 11-96A-1 Legislative declarations. It is hereby declared that a lack of sanitary,
safe, and affordable dwelling accommodations for persons of moderate and low income and shelters,
halfway houses and emergency housing for persons who would otherwise be homeless exists in

welfare of the citizens of the state. It is a matter of public interest to provide safe and
sanitary housing for the low and moderate income citizens and shelter for homeless persons,
to alleviate such conditions and to encourage economic development, to increase employment

of the public welfare of the State of Alabama to preserve and redevelop the downtown municipal

and any economically distressed area designated as suitable by the municipal or county governing
body is by creating a single exception to the existing alcoholic beverage laws to authorize
and permit the establishment of brewpubs located in such historic buildings, sites, or districts
