Under existing law, payments into the Forever Wild Land Trust carried out pursuant to Amendment 543 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, now appearing as Section 219.07 of the Official Recompilation of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, as amended, will expire at the end of the 2011-2012 fiscal year, unless extended by the Legislature. Under Section 13 of Amendment 543, the Legislature has been granted authority to extend payments into the Forever Wild Land Trust by legislative act. Pursuant to that authority, this bill would extend the Forever Wild Land Trust payments in its present form for 20 years for the purpose of continuing the Forever Wild land acquisition program.
