En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to state law. It recognizes Kent Todd Hamilton of Norman Park, Georgia, who runs Southern Valley Fruit and Vegetable Inc., a farming and produce company he co-founded with his brother Kirk in 1987 and now oversees across 5,500 acres in Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, and Mexico. The resolution recounts Hamilton's personal and business history, including the deaths of his brother and father, and commends him for his dedication to Georgia. It directs the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for Hamilton. The resolution creates no new rules, funding, or legal requirements.
