41-6A-2
Section 41-6A-2 Legislative intent. The Legislature finds that the development, management
and efficient use of energy resources and the conservation of energy is of prime importance
in an era of rising costs, foreign dependence and uncertain supplies. At the same time it
is also important to protect the economic, social and environmental values of the citizens
of the state. Such responsibilities require a comprehensive, coordinated capacity on the part

of the Legislature: (1) To ensure the wise development and efficient use of traditional energy
sources; (2) To encourage and assist the development, the use of renewable energy resources,

Section 24-1A-41 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds that the effects of the global
and national recession are now affecting Alabama's housing industry and adversely affecting
the state's economic development activity. The large number of homes on the market is causing
a reduction in housing starts, resulting in fewer construction jobs and lower tax collections
from the sale of building materials. In addition, the large number of existing homes on the
market is adversely affecting the states economic recovery. The Legislature desires to provide
a stimulus to provide a boost to the housing industry and to facilitate economic development
and industrial recruitment by creating a guarantee fund that would encourage investments in
new thirty-year, fixed-rate conventional mortgage loans through a program administered by
the Alabama Housing Finance Authority. The guarantee fund will reduce the investor's potential
for losses. (Act 2009-284, p. 487,ยง2.)...
