Section 16-16-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; liberal construction
of chapter. The Legislature hereby makes the findings of fact and declaration of intent hereinafter
set forth in this section. The great increase during recent years in the number of students
enrolled in the public schools and in other educational institutions in the state that are
supported wholly or in part by the state, the anticipated further increase in the enrollment
of students in such schools and educational institutions resulting from the greatly increased
birth rate and other factors, the increased enrollment in other public institutions in the
state and the need to supply additional educational facilities at those other public institutions
for the purpose of maintaining and further developing educational programs for the inmates

Section 16-60-82 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent. The Legislature hereby
makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to be as follows: The number
of students enrolled in trade schools and colleges supported wholly or in part by the state
has increased greatly during recent years. Further increases in enrollment are anticipated
because of the increased rate of births, the increased need for skilled workers and other
factors. In order to meet these needs and to provide residents of this state with the opportunity
to receive adequate instruction in the arts and sciences and in useful skills and trades,
it is imperative that junior colleges and additional trade schools be constructed, equipped
and operated. The tax revenues and other funds currently available for trade schools and junior
colleges are not sufficient to permit immediate outlays of the large amounts of capital necessary
for such construction and equipment and at the same time to permit...

16-16A-7
Section 16-16A-7 Additional findings; bonds authorized; procedures. (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. As a result, there will be a need
for the construction of additional school facilities as well as the renovation of existing
school facilities. The Legislature also finds that the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will have a positive impact on future receipts to the Education Trust Fund, as the significant
population growth in North Alabama will increase sales, income, and other tax collections.
Thus, it is an efficient use of state funds to allow such revenue growth to help pay for capital
improvement costs associated with BRAC-related school construction. (b) The Alabama Public
School and College Authority is hereby authorized to sell and issue its...
