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...

Justices No. 376, issued April 9, 2002, which states that a local bill for Washington County
"purporting to allow by local law the creation of a traffic in alcohol that does not

Section 34-14A-1 Legislative intent. In the interest of the public health, safety, welfare,
and consumer protection and to regulate the home building and private residence construction
industry, the purpose of this chapter, and the intent of the Legislature in passing it, is
to provide for the licensure of those persons who engage in home building, private residence
construction, and home improvement industries, including remodeling, and to provide home building
standards and to support education within the construction trades in the State of Alabama.
The Legislature recognizes that the home building and home improvement construction industries
are significant industries. Home builders may pose significant harm to the public when unqualified,
incompetent, or dishonest home builders and remodelers provide inadequate, unsafe, or inferior
building services. The Legislature finds it necessary to regulate the residential home building
and home improvement industries. (Acts 1992, No. 92-608,...

Section 45-37A-461 Electric supplier service territories. (a) 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 in and around the City of Tarrant City, Alabama. Among its findings
is that with respect to retail electric service industry, the benefits normally associated
with competition between two suppliers 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 in Tarrant City 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...
