Section 6-5-342 Skateboarding, roller skating in parks or rinks. (a) The purpose of this section
is to encourage owners of property to make land available for skateboarding or roller skating
activities in areas specifically designed for that purpose. It is recognized that there are
certain risks and dangers involved in skateboarding and roller skating activities, including
skating itself, riding, assisting, and observing. Property owners have been reluctant or failed

Section 22-30E-2 Legislative findings; purpose and intent of chapter; establishment of voluntary
assessment and/or cleanup program for properties with potential environmental contamination.

interest. (b) The Legislature finds that industries and developers often give preference to
previously unused greenfield sites over previously used property due largely to concerns over
the financial and environmental liabilities which may be incurred in acquiring such previously
used property for reuse and redevelopment. The Legislature...
