Section 33-17-2 Legislative intent; construction of chapter. The Legislature hereby makes the
findings of facts and declaration of intent hereinafter set forth in this section. The construction
of a navigable waterway between Demopolis, Alabama and the Tennessee River, utilizing the
channel of the Tombigbee River, would provide a new transportation route of great importance
and would stimulate the development of commerce, agriculture and industry in many sections
of the state. Local flooding along the tributary streams of the Tombigbee River occurs frequently
in the growing and harvesting season and causes considerable damage to agriculture in the
affected sections of the state. Improvements in the channels of the tributary streams will
eliminate much of the damage caused by flooding and will also permit improved farming practices
and better land use. It is the intention of the Legislature by the passage of this chapter
to implement the provisions of Amendment No. 270 of the...

Section 36-1A-2 Purpose. The Legislature finds that: (1) It is the policy of the state to lessen
the burden of government at both the state and local levels in meeting the needs of human
health, welfare and human care services by supporting charitable giving; (2) There is a need
to provide a single convenient channel through which public employees may support charitable
fund-raising federations and agencies of their choice while minimizing workplace disruption
and administrative cost to Alabama taxpayers; (3) It is necessary to establish a system to
plan and implement one annual charitable fund-raising campaign among state employees in order

It is the policy of the state to permit time in the working day during the prescribed campaign
period sufficient for volunteers to participate in the state campaign, with the approval of
the department heads. (Acts 1991, No. 91-561, p. 1037, §2.)...

Section 11-49B-1 Declaration of purpose and legislative findings. The Legislature finds that
it is estimated that by the year 2040, 40 percent of the economy of this nation, both people
and jobs, will be located in a 14-state region between Texas and Virginia. Alabama, and in
particular the Class 1 municipality and surrounding counties, will be in the very center of
this geographic spread. This center of the growth pattern when combined with our educational
facilities, quality of life, abundance of natural and cultural resources, steady economic
growth, range of housing options, quality health care, climate, affordability, and accessibility
provides this region with an unprecedented opportunity to attract new business both service
based and manufacturing. It, therefore, is the intent of this chapter to take advantage of
this growth opportunity by providing for a unified, coordinated, centrally orchestrated, genuinely
regional system of public transportation embracing services in the...
