Section 41-4-350 Legislative findings; purpose. (a) The Legislature of Alabama hereby finds and determines that the responsible stewardship of its state-owned and leased real property is a proper governmental function of the State of Alabama. The Legislature finds that costs for maintenance, construction, and leasing of real property in the state government comprise a significant portion of available resources. The Legislature also finds that as one of the largest owners and operators of buildings in Alabama, the state is a major consumer of energy.

In establishing this centralization, it is further the intent of the Legislature to establish comprehensive real...

Section 41-10-621 Legislative findings and purpose. (a) The Legislature finds and declares the following: (1) The State of Alabama has a great need from time to time to have access to financing for economic development and industrial recruitment that does not involve improvements to revenue-producing facilities.
