Section 37-4-150 Electric transmission facilities. (a) This section shall be known and may
be cited as the Energy Security Act of 2015. (b) The Legislature hereby finds and declares
that due to the economic, financial, and service impacts associated with the development of
electric transmission facilities used for the furnishing of electric service to consumers
in this state, it is in the public interest to provide incumbent electric suppliers the right
to construct, own, operate, and maintain new transmission facilities that connect to their
own electric systems. The Legislature further finds and declares that providing incumbent
electric suppliers this right furthers their ability to satisfy their respective obligations
to provide service to Alabama consumers. This section implements these findings. (c) As used
in this section, the following words have the following meanings: (1) COMMISSION. The Alabama
Public Service Commission. (2) ELECTRIC TRANSMISSION FACILITY. Any transmission...

Section 11-40-16 Creation of enterprise zones within Class 1 cities; purpose. (a) The Legislature
of Alabama hereby finds and declares that the health, safety, and welfare of the people of
Class 1 cities are enhanced by the continual encouragement, development, growth, and expansion
of private enterprise within this state. That there are certain economically depressed areas

and attract private sector investment rather than government subsidy to improve the quality
of life of their citizens. It is the purpose of this section to encourage new economic activity
in these depressed areas of such Class 1 cities by means of reduced taxes and the removal
of unnecessary governmental barriers to the production and earning of wages and profits and

Section 2-6-11 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that the Garrett Coliseum and the
Alabama Agricultural Center, hereinafter the facility, is a significant historic facility
owned by the State of Alabama and which faces imminent closure because of operational and
public safety concerns if it is not restored, renovated, and improved. The facility was designed
in 1949 by Betty Robinson, the first woman graduate from Auburn University with a degree in
architecture. The facility, completed in 1953, is of historic and cultural significance to
the State of Alabama and its restoration will enhance opportunities for economic development
that will benefit the state. The Legislature further finds that the most efficient way to
restore the facility and to operate it profitably is for the Alabama Agricultural Center Board,
hereinafter referred to as the board, to enter into agreements with public institutions and
other entities through which the use of private funding is primarily used to...

Section 24-1A-1 Legislative findings and declaration of purpose of chapter. (a) It is hereby
found and declared that from time to time there has existed and at the present time there
exists an inadequate supply of funds at interest rates sufficiently low to enable the financing
of safe and sanitary multi-family dwelling units for citizens of this state and single family
dwelling units for citizens of this state with low and moderate income; that the inability
to finance such single and multi-family dwelling units results in an inability of builders
to construct such housing causing unemployment or underemployment in the housing construction
and related businesses and causes a lack of safe and sanitary housing to be available to the
citizens of this state; that such unemployment or underemployment in the housing construction
and related businesses and an inadequate supply of safe and sanitary housing wastes human
