This is a commendation resolution from the Georgia House of Representatives honoring Seth Millican, who served as Executive Director of the Georgia Transportation Alliance (GTA) from April 2013 to November 2024. The resolution recounts his work developing transportation policy, supporting local transportation sales tax (SPLOST) campaigns, and helping pass the Transportation Funding Act of 2015 (HB 170), which created new recurring revenue for road and bridge maintenance and set up two local funding tools: a regional transportation SPLOST and a single-county transportation SPLOST. The resolution does not change any Georgia law. It formally recognizes Millican's service, thanks him on behalf of the House Committee on Transportation, and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare a copy of the resolution for him.
