The Section climate, from a business owner’s view

Precipitation totals about 60 inches a year, with December the wettest month. About 57 days a year hit 90°F or more. With this much rain, roofers, gutter installers, waterproofing and drainage contractors are in steady demand, often on short notice.

Rules that apply to a Section business website

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Alabama rules as any other.

  • Alabama’s state sales and use tax rate on general merchandise is 4%, with a reduced 2% rate on food and groceries since September 1, 2025; cities and counties add their own rates. Alabama Department of Revenue
  • Under ADA Title III, a business open to the public should make its website usable by people with disabilities, according to the Justice Department’s guidance. ADA.gov guidance
  • Alabama business privilege licenses are issued at county level; the state Department of Revenue coordinates state and county business privilege licenses, and the county probate office issues them. In Section, that means asking Jackson County and the Town of Section. Official source

Each business is different; this is general information, not legal advice.
