ACTS AND RESOLUTIONS OF THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY
OF THE
STATE OF GEORGIA
__________
2014
__________
COMPILED AND PUBLISHED BY AUTHORITY OF THE STATE
Volume Three Index and Miscellaneous

COMPILER'S NOTE
General Acts and Resolutions of the 2014 Regular Session of the General Assembly of Georgia will be found in Volume One beginning at page 1. The Supplementary Appropriations Act for FY 2013-2014 and the Appropriations Act for FY 2014-2015 will be found in the Volume One Appendix. These two Acts have been separately placed in the Appendix in order to maintain the special formatting and unique characteristics of the underlying bills. Local and Special Acts and Resolutions will be found in Volume Two beginning at page 3501. Home rule actions by counties and consolidated governments and by municipalities filed in the Office of the Secretary of State between June 1, 2013, and May 31, 2014, are printed in Volume Two beginning at pages 4323 and 4351, respectively.
There are no numbered pages between page 896, the last page of Volume One and page 3501, the first page of Volume Two. This allows both volumes to be prepared simultaneously. The only page numbers in the Volume One Appendix will be those appearing in the underlying bills.
Indexes; lists of Acts, Bills, and Resolutions and their Georgia Laws page numbers; material related to courts; population charts; lists of members of the General Assembly; referendum results; and the Governor's veto message are printed in Volume Three. Indexes cover material in both Volumes One and Two. The tabular indexes list matter by broad categories. The general index is a detailed alphabetical index by subject matter. When possible, general Acts have been indexed by reference to the titles of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated which they amend and the tabular index contains a list of Code sections which have been amended, enacted, or repealed.
Each Act and Resolution is preceded by a caption written by the compilers of the Georgia Laws solely to assist the reader in quickly determining the subject matter of the Act or Resolution. With the exception of Senate Resolution No. 371, this caption includes the Act number assigned by the Governor and the House or Senate Bill or Resolution number which it was given when it was introduced in the General Assembly. These captions are not part of the Act or Resolution when they are enacted or adopted by the General Assembly. Each Act or Resolution which was signed by the Governor is followed by the approval date on which it was signed by the Governor. Senate Resolution No. 371 was adopted by the House of Representatives and the Senate but was not transmitted to the Governor and was not assigned an Act number.

368A

GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATIONS AND VETOES

VETO NUMBER 1

SB 281 Senate Bill 281 would require that the State of Georgia offer a specific type of health insurance product in the state health insurance plan. The Department of Community Health has announced the plan to procure additional product offerings for the state health insurance plan which closely mirrors the general intent of this legislation. I agree with the author of this legislation that the state health insurance plan should include additional options, particularly options that are consumer-driven. However, to avoid any problem with the new product offerings not specifically conforming to the rather specific requirements set out in this legislation, out of an abundance of caution, I hereby VETO Senate Bill 281.

VETO NUMBER 2

SB 326 The original as filed Senate Bill 326 was amended with language providing additional daily expense allowance for the members of the State Personnel Board, the State Transportation Board, the Veterans Service Board, the Board of Natural Resources, and the State Board of Education. Current law sets the daily expense allowance for members at $105. This bill increases the board members' daily expense allowance by sixty-seven percent. Given the lack of justification provided for such increases in the board members' daily expense allowance, I hereby VETO Senate Bill 326.

VETO NUMBER 3

HB 670 Currently, business trade names are housed and accessed in the Superior Courts of our State. This bill would create a statewide registry of business trade names to be housed and maintained by the Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority. Several provisions of this legislation are concerning. This legislation would effectively increase taxes on small businesses by raising trade name registration fees and would add new fees for cancelling or reregistering existing trade names. I also have significant concerns about the language in the bill which attempts to dedicate these fees for a specific purpose. For these reasons, I VETO HB 670.

VETO NUMBER 4

HB 729 Georgia's existing Title Ad Valorem Tax law ("TAVT"), enacted March 1, 2013, eliminated the "birthday tax" and substituted it with a one-time payment upon the transfer of the vehicle title. I support the main effort of this bill, which sought to ensure there was no gaming of the vehicle trade-in valuations during the purchase and trade-in of a used car. However, the inclusion of the language regarding a lease finance company being eligible for a trade-in reduction at the end of a leased term significantly changes the trade-in definition. Current law states that local governments must receive a base amount and the first

GEORGIA LAWS 2014 SESSION

369A

recalibration of the disbursements is January 1, 2016. The first recalibration of the state target collection is July 1, 2015, which will determine if the tax rate requires a change. The negative effects of the lease provision on the state and local collections would be addressed in both recalibrations. I am vetoing this legislation because I believe it is too soon to implement a law that adversely affects revenue, thus, leaving the State of Georgia TAVT taxpayers in a more unstable position as the split between the state and local governments share of this revenue. Accordingly, I VETO HB 729.

VETO NUMBER 5

HB 769 House Bill 769 changes the description of education districts in Schley County. The author of House Bill 769 requested that House Bill 769 be vetoed because qualifying has already occurred under the existing districts. If the districts were to change after qualifying, it would incur a large cost on the Board of Education and on the taxpayers. Having reviewed the legislation and considered the request of the author of this legislation, I VETO HB 769.

VETO NUMBER 6

HB 837 House Bill 837 provides updates and certain expansions to the role of private companies in the administration of probation services in Georgia. There is language in this legislation that would exempt certain key information about private probation services from the Georgia Open Records Act. I favor more transparency over private probation services and therefore I am not in favor of this information being exempt from the Georgia Open Records Act. In addition, it is my understanding that the Supreme Court of Georgia has under its consideration an appeal that would address the role of private probation services and, while the current law pertaining to private probation services remains in effect, this legislation seeks to have a preemptive impact on any decision in that appeal. With these considerations in mind, I VETO House Bill 837.

VETO NUMBER 7

HB 858 House Bill 858 authorizes the Recorder's Court of Columbus to levy up to a twenty-five dollar technology fee to each fine imposed. In 2013, I signed legislation authorizing the Recorder's Court of Columbus to levy up to a fifteen dollar technology fee. A twenty-five dollar fee is excessive compared to similar court fees across the state and I am concerned that such a fee increase would set an unacceptable precedent for other similar courts. For this reason, I VETO HB 858.

370A

GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATIONS AND VETOES

VETO NUMBER 8 AND 9

HB 905 and HB 906 House Bills 905 and 906 are bills that update the territorial boundaries for the City of Brookhaven and the City of Chamblee. Currently, there is pending litigation involving the property at issue in this legislation and this legislation could preempt that process. For this reason, I VETO HB 905 and HB 906.

VETO NUMBER 10

HB 1146 House Bill 1146 would allow state funds appropriated to the Effingham County Board of Education to be used for the compensation of board members. Current state law and current rules of the State Board of Education dictate that compensation of local board members be through local tax revenues. Past local legislation affecting school board compensation does not include language which name state appropriations as an appropriate fund source. Because state appropriations are not an appropriate source for local board of education compensation funding, I hereby VETO House Bill 1146.

HB 744FY 2015 APPROPRIATIONS BILL
Intent Language Considered Non-Binding
Section 15, pertaining to the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities, page 20, Line 586:
The General Assembly seeks to direct the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Georgia Vocational Rehabilitation Agency in order to receive additional federal funding for supported employment services. The General Assembly further directs that the Georgia Vocational Rehabilitation Agency direct $1,000,000 of the additional federal funding to the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities. Page 23, Line 675 of HB 744 also directs the Department to provide an actionable plan to the General Assembly to create third party cooperative arrangements between the Department, University System of Georgia, Technical College System of Georgia, and Georgia Student Finance Commission to maximize financial assistance for vocational rehabilitation clients. It is premature to redirect resources between agencies prior to the creation of an actionable plan detailing how best to maximize available financial assistance for vocational rehabilitation services. Therefore, the Department is authorized to determine the most efficient use of available resources to maximize services for vocational rehabilitation clients in accordance with federal regulations and the general law powers of the Department.
Section 17, pertaining to the Department of Community Health, page 30, line 885:
The General Assembly seeks to instruct the Department to provide emergency transportation for medically indigent citizens 21 years of age and older by rotary wing air ambulance at the same reimbursement rates as citizens under the age of 21 through the Departmental Administration and Program Support program. The purpose of the Departmental Administration and Program Support program is to provide administrative support to all departmental programs. Review and reimbursement of health care claims to providers for medical services falls outside the scope of the purpose of the Departmental Administration program. Additionally, no funds were appropriated to the program to support implementation of the policy. The Departmental Administration and Program Support program does not have sufficient internal resources to redirect funds to implement this policy. Therefore, the Department is authorized to operate the program in accordance with the purpose of the program and the general law powers of the Department.
Section 27, pertaining to the Department of Human Services, page 69, line 2158:

State Auditor's Report (Revised) Concurrent Funding of Fiscal Retirement Bills
Enacted During the 2014 Legislative Session

The Honorable Brian P. Kemp Secretary of State 214 State Capitol Atlanta, Georgia 30334

Dear Mr. Kemp:

As required by Section 47-20-50.1 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, the following report is submitted for printing in the annual session laws of the State of Georgia. This report covers all fiscal retirement bills that had actuarial evaluations and were enacted during the 2012 legislative session. The report indicates whether or not provision has been made for the concurrent funding of the bill in accordance with the applicable requirements of Code Section 47-20-50.

Any fiscal retirement bill that is enacted by the General Assembly and is approved by the Governor or otherwise becomes law shall become effective on the first day of July immediately following the regular session during which it was enacted, but only if the enacted bill is concurrently funded as provided by Code Section 47-20-50. If an enacted bill, including one approved by the Governor, is not concurrently funded as required, then that bill may not become effective as law and shall be null, void, and of no force and effect and shall stand repealed in its entirety on the first day of July immediately following its enactment.

Following the close of each regular legislative session during which fiscal retirement bills may be enacted, the State Auditor is required to determine whether or not provision has been made for concurrent funding of each bill enacted which is not vetoed by the Governor. This determination is based upon the cost of the bill as reported to the General Assembly during the legislative session. This report complies with this requirement. As noted in the schedule on the following page, provisions have been made to concurrently fund the seven fiscal retirement bills approved by the Governor.

Respectfully,

GSG/cs
