Section 22-4-31 Legislative findings. The Legislature does hereby set out the following
findings and reasons for passage of this article. Alabama has adopted a system of health planning
and development administered by the State Health Planning and Development Agency (SHPDA).
In addition, the Statewide Health Coordinating Council (SHCC) is charged with reviewing Alabama's
health planning needs and writing the State Health Plan to assist the Certificate of Need
Review Board. The Certificate of Need Review Board is responsible for reviewing and approving
certificate of need applications in Alabama. There is no current systematic way for the SHPDA,
SHCC, or the Certificate of Need Review Board to collect all the health care services information
necessary for proper health care planning in Alabama, because reporting to SHPDA is voluntary.
The Legislature hereby finds and determines that collection of additional health care information
is necessary for informed statewide health planning. The...

Section 29-2-1 Legislative findings and intent. The Legislature hereby finds and declares
as follows: improving the efficiency, cost effectiveness and performance of all branches of
government can only be achieved with proper oversight, accountability, and transparency in

(1) That patterns of urban development have had substantial adverse impacts upon downtown
and community business districts vital to the economy of the State of Alabama. (2) That the
public interest would be advanced by authorizing the creation of self-help business improvement
districts and district management corporations to assist any Class 2 municipality in promoting

supplemental business services. (4) That a district management corporation representing real
property owners, or in certain cases, owners of a particular class of...

Section 28-4A-6 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that it is in the best interest
of the public welfare of the State of Alabama to preserve and redevelop the downtown municipal
areas and registered historic districts and certain economically distressed areas of this
state and to further promote the preservation and redevelopment of historic buildings and
sites. The Legislature finds that an effective way of facilitating the urban redevelopment
program and the preservation of historic buildings and sites, and registered historic districts
and any economically distressed area designated as suitable by the municipal or county governing
body is by creating a single exception to the existing alcoholic beverage laws to authorize
and permit the establishment of brewpubs located in such historic buildings, sites, or districts
in urban redevelopment areas or economically distressed areas of those municipalities located
within counties where the brewing of beer for consumption by the...

Section 9-21-2 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that the management and stewardship
of aquatic plants is important to the State of Alabama. It is the intent of the Legislature
that the management of aquatic plants in the waters of the Tennessee River be carried out
under the general supervision and stewardship of a board, as preventing the spread of and
managing the infestation of invasive aquatic plants in public waters of the Tennessee River
and its tributaries is best accomplished through coordinated educational and management activities.

Section 11-92A-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction
of article. (a) The Legislature hereby makes the following findings of fact and declares its
intent to be as follows: In recent years changes have taken place in the economy of the state
that have had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens. The agrarian economy that
once prevailed in the state and provided the principal means of livelihood for most of its
citizens has proven inadequate to provide employment for the state's growing population. The
advent of mechanized and scientific farming methods has reduced greatly the number of persons
required to obtain increased yields of agricultural products from land under cultivation.
There has been a correspondingly greater dependency upon industrial development as the bulwark
of the economy of the state. It is therefore appropriate and necessary that measures be taken
to secure to the citizens of the state the benefits of a strengthening...

Section 34-24-601 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that the diversion, abuse,
and misuse of prescription medications classified as controlled substances under the Alabama
Uniform Controlled Substances Act constitute a serious threat to the health, safety, and welfare
of the citizens of the State of Alabama. The Legislature further finds that the registration
of all physicians providing pain management services, as defined in this article, will assist
the Alabama Board of Medical Examiners in preventing the diversion, abuse, and misuse of controlled
substances by regulating these registrants. The Legislature further finds that it is in the
best interests of the public safety to give the Board of Medical Examiners the authority it
needs to suspend the registration of these physicians providing pain management services when
the public health, safety, or welfare requires immediate action. (Act 2013-257, p. 673, §1.)...
