Section 41-10-621 Legislative findings and purpose. (a) The Legislature finds and declares
the following: (1) The State of Alabama has a great need from time to time to have access
to financing for economic development and industrial recruitment that does not involve improvements
to revenue-producing facilities. (2) It is desirable and in the public interest to establish
a state-level authority with the power to issue bonds for such general purposes. (3) The Alabama
Supreme Court has held, in effect, that only when the debt of a public corporation is payable
out of a new revenue source will such debt not be considered a debt of the state in contravention
of Section 213 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901; the State of Alabama expects to receive
in the near future new revenues from the settlement of certain litigation between the state
and the tobacco industry. (4) By the passage of this division, it is the intention of the
Legislature to: a. Provide for the creation of a special...

Section 16-16A-7 Additional findings; bonds authorized; procedures. (a) The Legislature finds
that the number of students attending the several school systems located in those areas of
North Alabama that will be directly impacted by the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will collectively increase by an estimated 9,000 students. As a result, there will be a need
for the construction of additional school facilities as well as the renovation of existing
school facilities. The Legislature also finds that the 2005 BRAC and Subsequent BRAC Actions
will have a positive impact on future receipts to the Education Trust Fund, as the significant
population growth in North Alabama will increase sales, income, and other tax collections.
Thus, it is an efficient use of state funds to allow such revenue growth to help pay for capital
improvement costs associated with BRAC-related school construction. (b) The Alabama Public
School and College Authority is hereby authorized to sell and issue its...
