45-49-21.20
Section 45-49-21.20 Legislative findings. (a) The Legislature is cognizant of Opinion of the
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
presently exist in smaller municipalities in Washington 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,
in part, was 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
body disagrees with the conclusion reached by the court concerning Section 104....

11-92A-2
Section 11-92A-2 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent; construction of article.
(a) The Legislature hereby makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to
be as follows: In recent years changes have taken place in the economy of the state that have
had a far-reaching effect on the welfare of its citizens. The agrarian economy that once prevailed
in the state and provided the principal means of livelihood for most of its citizens has proven
inadequate to provide employment for the state's growing population. The advent of mechanized
and scientific farming methods has reduced greatly the number of persons required to obtain
increased yields of agricultural products from land under cultivation. There has been a correspondingly
greater dependency upon industrial development as the bulwark of the economy of the state.
It is therefore appropriate and necessary that measures be taken to secure to the citizens
of the state the benefits of a strengthening...

Section 2-6-71 Declaration of purpose and legislative findings. The Legislature has found and
determined and does hereby declare that in certain areas of this state, there are inadequate
market facilities available to Alabama farmers for the efficient handling and sale of agricultural
and agriculture related products. The Legislature has also found and determined, and does
hereby declare that the coliseum is in dire need of repair and is in such poor condition as
to limit its use by the public. It is the intent of the Legislature, by the passage of this
article, to authorize the incorporation of a public corporation as an instrumentality of the
state for the purpose of borrowing funds to finance the construction of an adequate market
facility and the renovation of the coliseum and to vest said corporation with all powers,
rights, privileges and titles that may be necessary to accomplish said purposes. This article
shall be liberally construed in conformity with said intent. (Acts 1984,...
