ALABAMA FACTS
State Flower In 1959, the Camellia replaced the goldenrod as the state flower. Colors of the flower are white, pink, and red, as well as a blend of three. A particular species of the Camellia has not been designated, hence the color variety. However, the red camellia is the accepted state flower.
State Salute Flag of Alabama I salute thee. To thee I pledge my allegiance, my service, and my life.
State Seal The state seal is round and bordered by the words, Alabama Great Seal. Within the circle, a map of Alabama is placed in the center and is bordered by Mississippi, Tennessee, Georgia, and Florida, along with the part of the Gulf of Mexico, which is named the Mississippi Delta, being the end of the Mississippi River.
State Tree Southern Pine (Longleaf). In 1949, the Southern Pine was designated to be the Alabama State tree. The original bill proposed, however, nominated the Longleaf Pine to be the state tree. The four largest groups of pine species are the longleaf, the slash pine, the loblolly and the longleaf.

Historical Data
City of Phenix City, Alabama
1820-1964
The
City of Girard
1890
Sometime prior to 1820, Girard was established as a trading post in the Creek Indian Territory of Alabama on the West Bank of the Chattahoochee River opposite a white settlement that later was named Columbus, Georgia. The north boundary of Girard being the north boundary of Russell County is presently known as 15th Street North.
The Capital of the Creek Nation at this time was situated about 8 miles south of Girard in Alabama and was called Coweta.
Prior to this area being established as a White Community, a town was laid out by a member of a New York Engineering Firm, Edward Lloyd Thomas, and was designated Marshalls Reserve. This land area was sold to a Columbus Real Estate interest for $35,000.00 by a half-breed Indian named Ben Marshall. It was later sold for a total of $100,000.00.
The City was named for a young Philadelphia Philanthropist and slave dealer, Stephen Girard, who acquired much of the land in this area. When Russell County was formed December 18, 1832, Girard became the County Seat; the first session of Court convened there October 14, 1833. With the population at 3,840 the City of Girard was officially incorporated by an Act of the Alabama Legislature H.B.-333 on December 8, 1890. A Mr. West served as its first Mayor.
In 1846, a corporation headed by Samuel G. Ingersoll and Associates was granted a charter to build a railroad from Ingersoll' s Hill in the town of Girard in the direction of Crawford. This railroad later became the Central of Georgia.
Russell County Seat moved from Girard to Crockettville, presently Crawford, in 1842. Russell County Seat moved from Crawford to Seale, Alabama in 1868.
Population growth of the City of Girard by Federal Census:
1900: 3,840 1910: 4,214 1920: 4,942
City of Phenix City
1883
The City of Phenix City was first incorporated as the Town of Brownville by an Act of the Alabama Legislature H.B.#585 on February 23, 1883. The town of Brownville was situated north of the Town of Girard in Lee County, with its Southern boundary being the northern boundary of Girard, which is presently known a 15th Street North. The County Seat of Lee County was Opelika.
T.S. Young was Elected Brownvilles first Mayor and presided at the first meeting of the Board of Alderman held March 27, 1883 in the Masonic Building. This small residential community was established prior to the Civil War and by 1880 had a population of 2,224. Although the town was officially named Brownville, the Post Office serving it was called Lively, and the Central of Georgia Railroad designated its depot, Knights Station. On February 19, 1889 the Town of Brownville by an Act of the Alabama Legislature H.B. #679 was officially changed to Phenix City, named for the Old Phoenix Mills in Columbus.
Population growth of the City of Phenix City prior to the annexation of the City of Girard by Federal Census:
1890: 3,700 1900: 4,163 1910: 4,555 1920: 5,432
Communities Consolidated
1923
The Cities of Girard and Phenix City were consolidated August 9, 1923 with a total population of 10,374. Soon afterward an effort was made to change the Citys name to Brandon in Honor of Governor William W. Brandon who signed the consolidation bill. However, after technical difficulties, the original name was retained.
The City of Phenix City has been governed at various times by a Board of Alderman and a 5-man and 3-man Board of Commissioners. Dr. Ashby Floyd was appointed Mayor with Homer D. Cobb, Sr., Isaac L Moses, Clyde M. Knowles, Sr., and Claude B. Gullatt, Sr., serving as commissioners immediately after the consolidation. The 5-Man Board of Commissioners was decreed unconstitutional, and a Board of Alderman governed the City from December 1923 until September 1928.
The Citys Government headed by a 3-Man Board of Commissioners from 1928 until 1947 changed to a 5-Man Board for the period from 1947 until 1953, when it reverted to a 3-Man Board. In October 1977, the present Council-City Manager form of government was adopted.
The Original City Hall of Phenix City
The original City Hall of Phenix City was built in three stages between the early 1900's and mid 1940's.
The Old building was demolished in 1963 to make room for construction of the Citys new Municipal Building.
The first section of the building was constructed in 1909 or 1910 and for the next 12 to 13 years served as the municipal building for the old City of Girard. In 1923, following the consolidation of Phenix City and Girard into a single City, the building became the municipal headquarters for the consolidated area.
The first expansion of the old building was completed in 1927 with the addition of a City Jail costing approximately $19,000.00. The unit was built on the south side of the first section and at the time of demolition was serving as a combination Police Headquarters and Jail.
In 1932, Russell County traded the Marvyn Community, in the northwest section of the county, to Lee County for a portion of Phenix City in Lee.
Following the trade a northern district of Russell County was established in Phenix City. County Officials set up office on the first floor of Old City Hall and the City Clerk was moved to the second floor of the building. In 1938, the present Russell County Courthouse was built, and all County Offices, both for the southern and northern districts were moved to the new building.
The final addition of the City Hall Building was constructed on the north side of the municipal building in 1944 and in the years that followed, it housed the Commission chamber, and the Offices of the City Clerk.

Alabama State Docks:
The Alabama State Docks system includes 11 strategically located inland ports along one of the finest networks of navigable rivers in the nation. These docks offer shippers efficient, low-cost water transportation for heavy industrial products, bulk cargo and agricultural products. All of the inland ports offer excellent dock facilities; many have exceptional industrial sites, and seven operate grain elevators.
With its 1985 opening, the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway System brings added importance to Alabamas inland docks, as well as providing economical and efficient barge service from the nations heartland to the waterways deep-water terminus, the Port of Mobile. Connecting some 16,000 miles of navigable inland waterway routes to the Gulf of Mexico and positively impacting some 23 states, the Tenn-Tom serves as a vital commerce lane between mid-American and world markets.

Property Taxes
Persons over the age of 65 may have all or a significant portion of their property tax on homestead waived per request. Contact the Revenue Commissioners office (Naomi Elliott) at(334) 298-6661.
The rates for property taxes in Alabama are as follows:
1. The state tax is 6.5 mills.
2. County and City mileage vary among the various jurisdictions. The maximum combined rate is 59 mills.
3. The County Governing Body, the legislature and the voters of the taxing jurisdiction must approve any increase in the county and municipal tax rate. Therefore, there is no taxation increase without the specific approval of the residents subject to the tax.
4. All non-exempt property is categorized under
one of four distinct classifications and assessed and subject to the
assessment ratios indicated below:
Class I. All property of utilities used in such
utilities: 30% of assessed value
Class II. All property not otherwise classified 20% of
assessed value.
Class III. All agricultural, forest and single-family owner
occupied residential property including mobile homes and historical sites:
10% of assessed value.
Class IV. All private passenger automobiles and motor
trucks or the type commonly known as pick-ups or pickup trucks owned and
operated by an individual for personal or private use and not
for hire, rent, or compensation: 15%
Note: To calculate an actual tax, take the assessed value, reduce it to the defined or appropriate percentage as shown above, and then multiply by the mileage rate. The value of homes as property for taxation may have a further homestead exemption and other tax reductions for person over the age of 65.
Personal Property Tax - For private cars and pickup trucks for personal use calculate 15% of the present value. The state tax rate multiplier is .0065, and there may be similarly small-added millage rates by the county and city residence.
Sales Tax - State sales tax rate is 4%, but additional taxes are imposed. There is a 3% tax in the City and 1% in the county.
Estate Tax - The tax is equal to the amount of the maximum state death tax credit allowable on the federal estate taxes paid.
Inheritance Tax - Alabama has no inheritance tax.
Real Estate Transfer Tax - There is no real estate transfer tax in Alabama.
