Community development districts, additional criteria for establishment of district on impounded reservoir created by river from wilderness area, sale of alcoholic beverages authorized

This bill expands the legal definition of community development districts in Alabama to include specific types of large-scale private resorts and commercial areas. It authorizes the sale of alcoholic beverages within these newly defined districts, which must meet strict criteria regarding size, amenities like golf courses and marinas, and membership requirements. The law also sets rules for where these districts can be located, such as prohibiting alcohol sales near highways in certain cases and allowing them in both dry and wet counties under specific conditions. By amending existing state codes, the legislation creates a framework for these communities to operate as licensed venues for on-premises alcohol consumption.
