Section 36-18-50 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds, determines, and declares the
following: (1) Driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance
continues to be a major problem on the highways of our state and causes the death or injury
of thousands of our citizens each year. (2) The Legislature should use whatever authority
is available to it to discourage driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or
a controlled substance, including the levying of fines therefor at a level which will discourage
such activity. (3) Administering and implementing a quality chemical testing program for alcohol
and controlled substances is costly for the taxpayers and thus the convicted offender should
bear a greater portion of the financial burden of the chemical testing program at the state
and local level. (4) The chemical breath testing program conducted by this state has reduced
the number of deaths and injuries, and the program continues to be...

45-37-200.03
Section 45-37-200.03 Issuance of motor vehicle or boat registrations; fees; disposition of
funds. (a) The Legislature finds that Jefferson County has reduced the number of locations
where the citizens of Jefferson County may be issued their motor vehicle registrations due
to the financial difficulties of the county resulting in impediments to the citizens and to
the collection of state and local taxes and fees. The Legislature further finds that there
is a substantial local need to provide additional and supplemental means for the issuance
of motor vehicle registrations in Jefferson County in response to a demonstrated local need
in the county. The Legislature further finds that citizens often desire to register their
boats at the same time that they register their motor vehicles, and therefore, citizens should
be able to register their boats at the same locations where they register their motor vehicles
as a matter of public convenience. (b) In Jefferson County, the mayor of any city...

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...
