Rel!istered Local Authorities

Introduction

Local government authorities are separate entities created for a specific public purpose. Local governments create authorities as a means of providing a wide range of services to its citizens and have used authorities in increasing numbers to deliver services. The 1992 Census of Governments notes that authorities are by far the most rapidly growing type of government.

Realizing the ever-increasing role authorities play in service delivery at the local government level, the General Assembly passed the Local Government Authorities Registration Act (O.G.G.A. 3680-16) during the 1995 legislative session. This act requires local government authorities to register annually with the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) beginning January 1, 1996. The act also specifies that local government authorities may not incur any debt or credit obligations after January 1, 1996 unless they are registered. Prior to this legislation, there was no official record of how many authorities were operating within the state.

This publication presents information on local government authorities that registered with DCA as of May 1, 1996. Information is presented in two separate sections. The first section is a listing of authority names grouped by county. For authorities serving more than one jurisdiction, the county designation was assigned based on the mailing address of the authority. The second section is a listing of authorities grouped by type.

The Department also offers a second publication which is a detailed directory of all registered authorities arranged alphabetically. This publication includes authorities' creation date, method of creation, legal citation, name and address, type, dependency status, and whether they are single or multi-jurisdictional. This second publication can be ordered from the Department's Office of
Information Services.

As mentioned earlier, there is a national trend of substantial growth in the number of authorities. As in the rest of the nation,

Georgia's local government authorities have been steadily growing since the 1950s. Of the 757 authorities registered with DCA, only 56 were created prior to 1950. Since that time, the number of

authorities has grown dramatically. A large number of the authorities registered with DCA were created recently, 295 since 1980.
The growth in authorities reflects the increased public demand for the provision of specialized services and local governments reliance on alternative methods of service delivery. Authorities are often better suited to deliver specialized services since they focus on one specific function, allowing a greater degree of concentrated effort in providing services. Financial considerations are also a very large part of the decision to provide services through an authority. As new programs are initiated, or new services required, the establishment of authorities may reduce the financial burden on cities and counties. Constitutional debt limitations are also an important reason for the increase in authorities since they are less restricted in their efforts to raise both capital construction and operating expenditure funds.
Under Georgia Statute, local government authorities can be created in three ways: by general enabling act, local laws, and Constitutional Amendments. There are ten types of authorities that can be created through a general enabling act:
Development Authority Downtown Development Authority Hospital Authority Housing Authority Joint Development Authority Regional Jail Authority Regional Solid Waste Management Authority Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly Authority Resource Recovery Development Authority Urban Residential Finance Authority (Municipalities over
350,000)
Cities or counties are authorized to create authorities through general enabling legislation by passing an ordinance or resolution. The majority of authorities registered with DCA (541 or 71 %) fall within this category of creation.

Introduction

example. several development and downtown development authorities are created under local law rather than general enabling statute. There are 131 (17%) authorities created by local law registered with DCA.
The third possible method of creating a local government authority is through a Constitutional Amendment. These are similar to local laws; however, they have to be approved by the voters of the jurisdiction and, as such, are included in the Constitution. There are 85 (11 %) of these authorities registered with DCA. Most of the constitutionally created authorities fall into the development authority category.
Authorities can be created to serve a single jurisdiction or may be established to provide services to multiple cities or counties. Most of the authorities registered with DCA (621 or 82%) were created to serve a single jurisdiction. Some authorities, however, are by their nature set up to serve more than one jurisdiction, such as regional solid waste authorities, regional jail authorities, and joint development authorities. Examples of other registered authorities that indicated they serve multiple jurisdictions include airport, hospital, housing, and development authorities.
Local government authorities may also function as either dependent or independent entities. If an authority's finances are included in a city or county's audit or financial statements, or if the operating decisions are made by a city or county's executive officer or its governing board, it is considered to be dependent. All other authorities are classified as independent. Of those authorities registered with the department, most (582 or 77%)

indicated they were independent.
As mentioned earlier, local government authorities are established to carry out a specific public purpose. These purposes can include economic development, hospital operations, housing, the operation of a water and sewer system, and others. The largest percentage of authorities registered with DCA (343 or 45%) are development authorities which includes downtown development, industrial development, and joint development authorities. The next most popular type of authority is housing (167 or 22%), followed by hospital (88 or 12%) and water and sewer (40 or 5%). Authorities making up the "Other" category include solid waste, airport, recreation, parking, public transit, building, public service, regional jail, residential care facilities for the elderly, resource recovery, and stadium.
