45-13-20
Section 45-13-20 Municipal option election for legalization of sale and distribution
of alcoholic beverages. (a)(1) The Legislature of Alabama is cognizant of "Opinion of
the Justices No. 376," issued April 9, 2002, which states 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, this...
