Section 40-6A-1 Legislative intent. The Legislature recognizes the necessity of an equitable,
fair, and efficiently administered ad valorem tax program to the revenue producing functions
of government, both state and local, and it further recognizes that since the implementation
of statewide reappraisal of property and the equalization of ad valorem taxes in this state,
the complexity and burden on the officials charged with assessing and collecting such taxes
has greatly increased. Likewise, great disparity has developed among the various counties
of this state in both the adequacy of compensation of such officials and the distribution

the burden of funding the costs of such program, it is the intent of this...
