SR951: SR951 BOMA Georgia Day; recognize February 3, 2026

Last action March 16, 2026 · Senate Read and Adopted

A Georgia Senate resolution honors the Building Owners and Managers Association of Georgia (BOMA Georgia) on its 113th anniversary and designates February 3, 2026, as BOMA Georgia Day at the state capitol.

In plain language

This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia Senate rather than a change to state law. It commends BOMA Georgia, a trade association for the commercial real estate industry founded in 1913, for its long history supporting building owners and managers across the state. The resolution recognizes February 3, 2026, as BOMA Georgia Day at the state capitol and directs the Secretary of the Senate to provide a copy of the resolution to the organization. It cites the group's economic impact and its role in past legislation, but it does not create any new requirement, program, or funding.
