COMPILED AND PUBLISHED BY AUTHORITY OF THE STATE
Volume Three Index and Miscellaneous
COMPILER'S NOTE
General Acts and Resolutions of the 2022 Regular Session of the General Assembly of Georgia will be found in Volume One beginning at page 1. The Supplementary Appropriations Act for FY 2021-2022 and the Appropriations Act for FY 2022-2023 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 May 1, 2021, and May 1, 2022, are printed in Volume Two beginning at pages 6119 and 6145, respectively. There are no numbered pages between page 838, 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 messages 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Annotated which they amend and the tabular index contains a list of Code sections which have been amended, enacted, or repealed.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. Except as otherwise noted in the volume, 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.

GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATIONS AND VETOES
GOVERNOR BRIAN P. KEMP 2022 SESSION OF THE GEORGIA GENERAL ASSEMBLY
VETO MESSAGES & SIGNING STATEMENTS
VETO 1
Senate Bill 473 would reapportion the districts for the Sumter County Board of Education.
At the request of the sponsor, I VETO SENATE BILL 473.
VETO 2
House Bill 1538 would annex parcels of land into the City of Smyrna from unincorporated Cobb County. Several of these parcels are currently zoned for a land use designation that is not recognized by the City of Smyrna Zoning Ordinance (the "Smyrna Ordinance"). Per the Smyrna Ordinance, upon annexation, these parcels would be rezoned to the land use designation which is most like their Cobb County land use designation.
Since these parcels' current land use designation is not recognized by the Smyrna Ordinance, these parcels would be rezoned to a less-intense land use designation than how they are currently zoned. This rezoning would cause these property owners to suffer a significant detriment in their property values and would amount to a violation of their due process rights.
For the foregoing reasons, I VETO HOUSE BILL 1538.
VETO 3
Senate Bill 616 would change the compensation of the solicitor-general of the State Court of Chattooga County.
At the request of the sponsor, I VETO SENATE BILL 616.
Statement on House Bill 476
House Bill 476 removes the Georgia Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors ("PELS") Board from the jurisdiction of the Professional Licensing Board Division ("PLB") of the Secretary of State's Office. Though I firmly believe in the efficiency afforded by PLB, and the concept of a centralized, uniform process for occupational licensure and regulation, I recognize there are rare instances where the independence of a licensing board better protects public health, provides better service for industry needs, and promotes efficiency in government.
GEORGIA LAWS 2022 SESSION
401A
In reviewing House Bill 476, the Georgia Occupational Regulation Review Council ("GORRC") found the current operation of the PELS Board presents a potential for harm, specifically noting delays in enforcement for violations presenting a threat to public health and safety. While I strongly support the policy of consolidating administrative functions to find efficiencies in government, I believe in this specific instance the current threat to public health and safety outweighs potential issues raised regarding the Board's independence.
Most engineering firms are small businesses, with far fewer than 50 employees and many operations include only one or two individuals. Insufficient communication and lack of enforcement by PLB is hindering the ability of these small businesses to respond to industry demands at a time when our state needs their timely services.
For the foregoing reasons, I SIGN HOUSE BILL 476.

The department has existing available capital funding of $35 million through prior year bond authorizations. The department should prioritize utilizing existing available balances for shortline rail upgrades before additional funds are authorized. Therefore, the department is directed to disregard the language included in line 4557 and utilize the funds for a rail extension in Bryan County.
LINE-ITEM VETOES BY THE GOVERNOR
Section 50, pertaining to the Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 162, line 4780: The General Assembly authorizes the appropriation of $432,718 in debt service for the purpose of financing projects and facilities for the Technical College System of Georgia, specifically for the design of the Logistics, Transportation and Manufacturing Complex at West Georgia Technical College, through the issuance of $1,870,000 in 5-year taxable general obligation bonds. This project was identified as a lower priority by the Technical College System of Georgia and the total cost of the project over the next three years would exceed the annual capital planning amount for the System. Therefore, I veto this authorization (page 162, line 4780) in the provisions relative to Section 50: Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $432,718.

This project was identified as a lower priority by the Technical College System of Georgia and the total cost of the project over the next three years would exceed the annual capital planning amount for the System. Therefore, I veto this authorization (page 162, line 4782) in the provisions relative to Section 50: Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $367,926.
Section 50, pertaining to the Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 163, line 4785: The General Assembly authorizes the appropriation of $363,200 in debt service for the purpose of financing projects and facilities for the Technical College System of Georgia, specifically for land acquisition for a new Technology Center at Georgia Piedmont Technical College in Dekalb County, through the issuance of $4,000,000 in 20-year taxable general obligation bonds. The amount authorized provides only half of the amount necessa1y to acquire the land needed for the project. Capital authorizations should meet the full need

Section 50, pertaining to the Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 166, line 4813: The General Assembly authorizes the appropriation of $268,768 in debt service for the purpose of financing projects and facilities for the Department of Transportation, specifically to upgrade shortline railroads to Class II rail, through the issuance of $2,960,000 in 20-year taxable general obligation bonds.

State Auditor's Report Concurrent Funding of Fiscal Retirement Bills Enacted During the 2022 Legislative Session
The Honorable Brad Raffensperger Secretary of State 214 State Capitol Atlanta, Georgia 30334
Dear Mr. Raffensperger:
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 2022 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 all four of the fiscal retirement bills signed into law by the Governor.
Respectfully,
GSG/cs
s/Greg S. Griffin Greg S. Griffin State Auditor
