Section 45-39A-50 Local option election authorized for sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages.
(a)(1) The Legislature of Alabama is cognizant of Opinion of the Justices No. 376, 825 So.
2d 109 (Ala. 2002), which states on page 115 that a local bill for Cherokee County "purporting
to allow by local law the creation of a traffic in alcohol that does not presently exist in
smaller municipalities in Cherokee County, does not fit within the ambit of the last paragraph
of Section 104 permitting the Legislature to pass local laws regulating or prohibiting such
traffic." The effect of this Opinion of the Justices is to greatly limit situations in
which local laws may be enacted regarding alcoholic beverages. This opinion was, in part,
based upon a determination that, "Generally, 'regulate' implies the exercise of control
over something that already exists." While respecting the constitutional authority granted
to the Alabama Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution of Alabama of 1901,...

"purporting to allow by local law the creation of a traffic in alcohol that does not
presently exist in smaller municipalities in Washington County, does not fit within the ambit
of the last paragraph of Section 104 permitting the Legislature to pass local laws regulating

Section 6-5-751 Legislative findings and objectives. (a) The Legislature finds that the recruitment,
establishment, development, and growth of the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry
in the State of Alabama is important to the economic health of the state and its agencies
and institutions and to the general health, welfare, and prosperity of its citizens. The Legislature
finds that it is reasonable and important to the national and international companies and
businesses involved in the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry locating or
considering locating in the State of Alabama to expect that civil liability actions against
them, if any, will be governed by tort principles generally accepted in other jurisdictions
outside this state that are home to such companies and businesses, but which are consistent
with the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, and this state's public policy. The Legislature
finds that the principles addressed in this article, namely,...

Section 45-37A-461 Electric supplier service territories. (a) The Legislature of the State
of Alabama has investigated the economic, financial, and environmental impact associated with
the potential for duplication of electric distribution facilities used for the furnishing
of retail electric service in and around the City of Tarrant City, Alabama. Among its findings
is that with respect to retail electric service industry, the benefits normally associated
with competition between two suppliers for customers is outweighed by the tremendous cost
burden which must be borne by such customers associated with the maintenance of two or more
duplicate sets of facilities. It is the further finding of the Legislature that the existence
of duplicate facilities for the furnishing of electricity at retail in Tarrant City is not
in the public interest because of the adverse impact which such duplication has on environmental
and aesthetic values and on safety. It is therefore declared that the...
