En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives, not a change to state law. It recognizes March 4, 2026, as City of Hapeville Day at the Georgia State Capitol. The resolution praises Hapeville, a city of about 6,500 people near Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, for its industrial history (including the former Ford Motor Company Assembly Plant, now the Porsche Cars North America Headquarters), its public art and cultural events, and its role in the Atlanta Aerotropolis economic zone. It directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to send copies of the resolution to Hapeville's Mayor and City Council.
