HR 338: Association of Georgia General Aviation Airports; an industry association for general aviation airports in the State of Georgia and its corporate affiliates; commend

This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a change to state law. It recognizes the Association of Georgia General Aviation Airports (AGGAA), a nonprofit founded in 2021 that promotes general aviation airports across Georgia, shares information and education, and advocates for legislation to improve airport infrastructure. The resolution notes that Georgia has 95 general aviation airports supporting industries like technology, manufacturing, tourism, and agriculture, with an estimated economic impact of more than $2 billion. It lists AGGAA's board members and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for the association. The resolution does not create any new legal requirements, funding, or penalties.

• Formally recognizes the Association of Georgia General Aviation Airports for its contributions to general aviation airports in Georgia.
• States that Georgia's 95 general aviation airports have an economic impact of more than $2 billion.
• Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to prepare a copy of the resolution for distribution to the association.
• Extends the House's best wishes for the association's future success, without creating any binding legal obligations.

The resolution directly names the Association of Georgia General Aviation Airports and its listed board members. More broadly it references airport managers, government employees, industry consultants, vendors, and students involved with Georgia's 95 general aviation airports.

Because this is a commendation rather than a law, it does not change any rights, funding, or requirements for airports or the aviation industry. Its main effect is a symbolic, public acknowledgment by the Georgia House of Representatives of AGGAA's work and the economic role of general aviation airports.

• The whereas clauses describe Georgia's 95 general aviation airports and their role in transportation and economic development for industries like manufacturing and tourism.
• The whereas clauses state the general aviation airport network has an economic impact of more than $2 billion in Georgia.
• The whereas clauses describe AGGAA's founding in 2021, its nonprofit mission, and its membership of airport managers, students, and industry consultants.
• The resolved clause has the House recognize AGGAA for its contributions and wish it future success.
• The final clause directs the Clerk of the House to make a copy available to AGGAA.
