§5A-3-55. Legislative findings.
The Legislature hereby finds that the absence of regularly scheduled intrastate commercial passenger air service in the state inhibits participation on state boards and commissions by citizens living in distant areas of the state; results in the loss of productivity by state employees and legislators traveling to and from distant communities; and hampers economic development. The Legislature further finds that it would well serve the state's interests to partially underwrite the cost of providing air service by soliciting competitive bids from responsible bidders in the private sector to provide air service to the state.
