HR931: HR931 Davis, Arlene; honor

This House resolution is a ceremonial measure honoring Arlene Davis, a real estate agent licensed since 1993 who became active in local and state Realtor associations. The text recounts her career, including chairing committees for the Altamaha Basin Board of Realtors, serving as its board president, launching RE/MAX Vidalia, working with ERA Southeast Coastal Realty, serving as a Georgia Realtors (GAR) regional director, and being elected GAR president in 2007, when she started the GAR Leadership Academy. The resolution lists awards she received, including GAR Realtor of the Year honors and a spot in the GARPAC Top Investor Hall of Fame. It does not change any Georgia law.
