Section 24-1A-1 Legislative findings and declaration of purpose of chapter. (a) It is hereby
found and declared that from time to time there has existed and at the present time there
exists an inadequate supply of funds at interest rates sufficiently low to enable the financing
of safe and sanitary multi-family dwelling units for citizens of this state and single family
dwelling units for citizens of this state with low and moderate income; that the inability
to finance such single and multi-family dwelling units results in an inability of builders
to construct such housing causing unemployment or underemployment in the housing construction
and related businesses and causes a lack of safe and sanitary housing to be available to the
citizens of this state; that such unemployment or underemployment in the housing construction
and related businesses and an inadequate supply of safe and sanitary housing wastes human
resources, increases the public assistance burden of the state, impairs...

Section 35-15-20 Legislative intent. It is hereby declared that there is a need for outdoor
recreational areas in this state which are open for public use and enjoyment; that the use
and maintenance of these areas will provide beauty and openness for the benefit of the public
and also assist in preserving the health, safety, and welfare of the population; that it is
in the public interest to encourage owners of land to make such areas available to the public

Section 37-14-30 Declaration of findings and policy; relationship to 1984 act. 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. It has been determined that with respect to retail
electric sales, the benefit normally associated with competition between two or more entities
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 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 policy of the State of Alabama is to ensure effective,...
