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

smaller municipalities in Cherokee County, does not fit within the ambit of the last paragraph

to the Alabama Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, this...
