(a) The Legislature finds that the number of students attending the several school systems located in those areas of North Alabama that will be directly impacted by the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions will collectively increase by an estimated 9,000 students.

(b) The Alabama Public School and College Authority is hereby authorized to sell and issue its...
