En lenguaje claro
This resolution is a ceremonial statement from the Georgia House of Representatives rather than a change to state law. It marks the 35th anniversary of the Georgia Planning Act, which requires local governments to engage in coordinated, comprehensive planning to protect the state's natural resources and quality of life. The resolution recognizes eight cities (Acworth, Alma, Augusta, Camilla, Griffin, Monroe, Toccoa, and Warner Robins) that the Georgia Department of Community Affairs designated as Georgia PlanFirst communities for their strong record of developing and carrying out comprehensive plans. The House formally honors these cities for their planning accomplishments and directs the Clerk of the House to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to the public and the press.
