The State Board of Education will be authorized to enter into contracts with nonprofit organizations which provide civic engagement and service-learning opportunities to assist Georgia's students.  Grants, private donations or other non-State funds are to be used to assist with implementation of this program.  If passed, this initiative will begin with all students entering the ninth grade on and after July 1, 2010.

Doug Collins (R-Gainesville) offered this substantial revision to Georgia's law regarding various branch agencies within State government.  It would create the Georgia Services Administration ("GSA" as it would be known), the successor agency to the Department of Administrative Services which would be abolished.  It would also abolish the State Properties Commission and State Personnel Administration; those functions would be then transferred to the new Georgia Services Administration.  The Georgia Aviation Authority, State Accounting Office, Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services, Georgia Building Authority, Office of State Administrative Hearings, and Georgia Technology Authority would be assigned to this new entity for administration purposes. It makes these changes in Titles 6, 12, 45 and 50.  The Bill also would add a new Article 5 in Chapter 5 of Title 50 to be known as the "State Properties Code" addressing acquisition and leasing of property and space for State uses and offices which would be done by GSA.

Michael Harden (R-Toccoa) authored an amendment to O.C.G.A. § 8-2-25 exempting a farm's storage facilities, business offices, and buildings used for farm machinery/equipment from the statewide application of minimum standard building codes or codes adopted by a municipality or a county.

This Commission, if passed, would be abolished on January 15, 2011.

HR 1767 – Rep. Karla Drenner (D-Avondale Estates) has proposed this Resolution creating the House Study Committee on Renewable Energy to look at the access to the "most efficient, environmentally sound methods of alternative and renewable energy production."  It will delve into a comprehensive study and any implications and ramifications of a national "Renewables Portfolio Standard." This Study would be done on or before December 31, 2010.

HR 1768 – Rep. Doug Collins (R-Gainesville) offered this Constitutional Amendment to remove from the State's Constitution provisions relating to the State Personnel Board and a State Merit System of Personnel Administration.  This would strike paragraph I of Section III,  Article IV.

SB 501 – Sen. John Douglas (R-Social Circle) offered this proposal in O.C.G.A. § 32-2-1 modifying provisions relating to the State Transportation Board so that the treasurer of Transportation will be a gubernatorial appointee which would be confirmed by the Senate.  This individual would serve at the pleasure of the Governor.

SB 503 – Sen. Jeff Mullis (R-Chickamauga) proposed requiring that lobbyists file disclosure reports of expenditures on members of the State Transportation Board in O.C.G.A. § 21-5-70.  This would also apply to lobbyists who were undertaking to influence the Board to select a particular vendor or contractor.

SB 505 – Sen. Cecil Staton (R-Macon) authored an amendment to O.C.G.A. § 32-2-20 limiting membership of individuals serving the State Transportation Board to one five-year term. Presently, there is no such limitation.

Vincent Fort (D-Atlanta) proposed changes to O.C.G.A. § 50-18-72(a) modifying current law relating to the exemption for records of a pending investigation or prosecution of criminal or unlawful activity from public disclosure.  The records would remain privileged and exempt from such public disclosure if transmitted to another agency or a district attorney's office for a concurrent investigation. This would remain until the completion of such concurrent investigation(s) and completion of the original investigation and prosecution. It further proposes that the records would not lose their privileged and exempt status "merely because of the completion of, or the issuance of the findings or recommendations of, any one of such concurrent investigations."

SB 507 – Sen. Vincent Fort (D-Atlanta) proposed adding O.C.G.A. § 26-2-32.1 to require retail grocery stores make toilet and washroom facilities available to purchasing customers, if such facilities are present on the premises.

SB 509 – Sen. Tim Golden (D-Valdosta) authored this new Code Section for O.C.G.A. § 33-1-19 establishing a Special Advisory Commission on Mandated Health Insurance Benefits.  It would become effective on February 1, 2011 and would advise the Governor and General Assembly "on the social and financial impact of current and proposed mandated benefits and providers, in the manner set forth in this Code Section."  This Commission would be made up of fourteen members and three ex-officio members.  Ten of these members would be appointed by the Governor on or after February 1, 2011 (a physician; a CEO of a general acute care hospital; one allied health professional; one representative of small business; one representative of a major industry; one expert in the field of medical ethics; two representatives of the accident and health insurance industry; and two citizens).  The President of the Senate would appoint one member from the Senate Health and Human Services Committee and one member from the Senate Insurance and Labor Committee; and the Speaker would appoint one member from the House Health and Human Services Committee and one from the House Committee on Insurance.  Commissioners from Departments of Community Health, Labor and Insurance would serve as ex-officio members.  These Commission members would have four-year terms, except when filling vacancies. Its first meeting would take place no later than March 1, 2011.  Specific duties of this Commission are proposed:

1. Develop and maintain, with the Department of Insurance, a system and program of data collection to assess the impact of mandated benefits and providers, including costs to employers and insurers, impact of treatment, cost savings in the health care system, number of providers, and other data as may be appropriate;
2. Advise and assist the Department of Insurance on matters relating to mandated insurance benefits and provider regulations;
3. Prescribe the format, content, and timing of information to be submitted to the advisory commission in its assessment of proposed and existing mandated benefits and providers. Such format, content, and timing requirements shall be binding upon all parties submitting information to the advisory commission in its assessment of proposed and existing mandated benefits and providers;
4. Provide assessments of proposed and existing mandated benefits and providers and other studies of mandated benefits and provider issues as requested by the General Assembly;
5. Provide additional information and recommendations, relating to any system of mandated health insurance benefits and providers, to the Governor and the General Assembly, upon request; and
6. Report annually on its activities to the joint standing committees of the General Assembly having jurisdiction over insurance by December 1 of each year.

 

Once any legislation is introduced on an insurance or health mandate, it would be under the jurisdiction of this Commission which would prepare and forward to the Governor and General Assembly a study accessing the social and financial impact and medical efficacy of the proposal.  The Commission would be given six months, or until commencement of the next General Assembly, whichever is longer, to complete this assessment.  This Commission would also have to assess the social and financial impact and medical efficacy of existing mandated benefits; that evaluation would be required to be done no later than December 31, 2011.  Staffing assistance for this Commission would be done by Departments of Community Health, Labor, and Insurance.

SB 510 – Sen. Lester Jackson (D-Savannah) offered this new Article 3 in Chapter 2 of Title 49 establishing the Georgia Youthbuild Program within the Department of Human Services.  It is to help: expand the supply of permanent affordable housing for homeless individuals, low-income persons, and special needs populations by utilizing energies/talents of economically disadvantaged youth; provide these youth with opportunities for work/service to their communities in helping meet the housing needs of the homeless; enable the economically disadvantaged youth the ability to obtain the education and employment skills to achieve economic self-sufficiency; and foster development of leadership skills/commitment to community development among youth in designated community empowerment zones.  This program is designed for individuals who are between the ages of 16-24 within low income households and who are neither attending school or have a diploma from a secondary school or have a certificate of equivalency for such diploma.  This initiative will be funded through available gifts, grants or other sources of revenue. Participants in this Georgia Youthbuild would be offered full-time participation for at minimum of six months but no more than 24 months with 50 percent of their time devoted to educational services and activities.

SB 511 – Sen. Chip Pearson (R-Dawsonville) authored amendments for Part I of Article 2 of Chapter 8 of Title 12 relating to solid waste management allowing for "disposal and decomposition of vegetative waste and other yard trimmings in a lined municipal solid waste landfill having a landfill gas collection system in operation directed to a beneficial use of landfill gas such as electrical power generation, industrial end use, or similar beneficial reuse is a use of yard trimmings that promotes renewable energy goals, protects the environment, and confers a substantial public benefit."  The proposal contains recommended methods of handling yard trimmings in the Bill, which will permit chipped or composted materials.  It further defines "recovered materials processing facility" in O.C.G.A. § 12-8-24(e) and it also amends the eight ways permits may be modified.

Jack Hill (R-Reidsville) authored this initiative adding a new Code Section at O.C.G.A. § 48-8-68 allowing the Commissioner for the Department of Revenue more authority in collecting sales and use taxes from business entities that may otherwise not be obligation to remit such taxes.  [Note: This Bill was on a fast track; it was heard yesterday in the Senate Appropriations Committee which passed the measure along to the Senate Rules Committee.]

SB 513 – Sen. Johnny Grant (R-Milledgeville) proposed this change in O.C.G.A. § 48-5-41, allowing for conditions under which a charitable institution receiving an exemption may rent or lease buildings for a fee without invalidating such exemption.  "The renting or leasing of such buildings to third parties for a fee shall not invalidate the exemption for such property so long as: (A) The third-party user of the property is not using it to generate income, other than generating income for the charitable institution itself or for another purely public charity or entity that would be entitled to the exemption if it owned the property; and (B) All income generated from the rental of such property is used exclusively: (i) For the charitable institution that owns the property; (ii) For another purely public charity; (iii) For another entity that would be entitled to the exemption if it owned the property; or (iv) To defray the actual costs of using the building to generate income for the charitable institution, another purely public charity, or another entity that would be entitled to the exemption if it owned the property."

(a) Under a general agreement indemnity contract, the cost indemnified against by the principal, including attorney's fees, shall be reasonably incurred and reasonable in amount.

(b) The standard for reasonably incurred requires that the surety must act in good faith and out of reasonable necessity.

(c) The fees must have a rational and reasonable relation to the surety's actual and potential liabilities arising directly from the bonded transaction.

(d) The surety shall have the burden of proving good faith and the reasonable necessity of incurring attorney's fees.

(e) If the principal and his or her indemnified surety are sued by the obligee under the surety's bond, and the surety exercises its right under the indemnity agreement of the principal to hire its own counsel and incur litigation expense in defense of the action, the liability of the principal for attorney's fees and expenses by the surety will depend upon whether, under all the facts of the case, it was reasonably necessary for the surety to act in its own defense and whether the surety acted in good faith toward the principal.

(f) An award of reasonable and necessary attorney's fees or expenses of litigation under this Code section shall be determined by the court without a jury and shall be made by an order of court which shall constitute and be enforceable as a money judgment.

SB 515 – Sen. Preston Smith (R-Rome) authored a new Code Section at O.C.G.A. § 20-2-212.6 proposing enactment of the "Educators Salary Protection Act."  It would prohibit furloughs of teachers (school system personnel) if that local board of education has an "unencumbered amount equal to or greater than six percent of that year's total operating budget in a single reserve fund or reserve account established pursuant to O.C.G.A. § 20-2-167.  If the local board has these funds, then it will be required to utilize the moneys in that fiscal year to participate in the Quality Basic Education Program.

SB 526 – Sen. Hardie Davis (D-Gracewood) proposed changes to Chapter 6 of Title 32.  In this proposal, it would regulate the oversize and overweight loads on streets or highways.  He defines the term "NHS" as the acronym for "National Highway System."  The proposal also defines the term "excess weight" in O.C.G.A. § 32-6-27(a)(2)(B) as i) "any single axle weight which exceeds any single axle weight allowed by such permit; and ii) all weight greater than 150,000 pounds when the gross weight of the vehicle and load exceeds the gross weight allowed by such permit or when any axle spacing is less than that specified by such permit."

It also addresses vehicles which utilize "idle reduction technology."  Further, the Bill adds language pertaining to the transportation of two modular housing units and when such is authorized, adding requirements that a modular unit transporter must meet.

SB 527 – Sen. Jeff Chapman (R-Brunswick) introduced this new Code Section at O.C.G.A. § 21-5-90 providing additional "ethics" laws and specifically for a gift disclosure report for public officers to be filed electronically on the fifth day of each month.  Gifts from family (public officer's child, stepchild, parent, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, niece, nephew, grandchild, grandparent, or spouse whether of the whole or half-blood or by adoption) are not to be included in such report.  On the report, it would include who gave the gift or if the gift was from an organization and the name of that organization if so; the value, date and description of the gift; connection of the public officer to the gift giver and any bill, resolution, ordinance, regulation pending which the gift giver might be associated with; description of the public officer's connection with the gift giver and, if applicable, the rule or regulation number or description of the rule or regulation pending before a state agency with which the gift giver is associated.  Penalties are included for late filings of this report.  If passed and signed into law, the first such report would be required to be filed on or before February 5, 2011.

Nan Orrock (D-Atlanta) authored this new Code Section proposal for O.C.G.A. § 20-2-72.1, providing that public high schools shall provide students, parents and guardians with the option of not releasing their personal information to military recruiters. This option would be sent in the form of a "notice" to the student and his or her parent/guardian so that they may request that the student's name, address, and telephone number not be released to military recruiters.  A list would then be compiled by the principal of each public high school which would be submitted to the local board of education which includes the names of those students, and contact information, who are not to have information released.

SB 529 – Sen. Chip Pearson (R-Dawsonville) introduced amendments relating to abortion.  It adds in O.C.G.A. § 16-12-140(b) specifying acts which constitute criminal abortion:

A person commits the offense of criminal abortion when that person performs an abortion:

1. With the intent to prevent an unborn child from being born based upon the race, color, or gender of the unborn child or the race or color of either parent of that child;
2. With the knowledge that the pregnant woman is seeking the abortion based upon the race, color, or gender of the unborn child or the race or color of either parent of that child;
3. With the knowledge that the pregnant woman is seeking the abortion as a result of coercion; or
4. In violation of any of the following: Code Section 15-11-112, subsection (b) or (c) of Code Section 16-12-141, Code Section 31-9A-3, or Code Section 31-9A-5.

 

According to this proposal, violators of (b)(4) above, will be guilty of a misdemeanor if convicted.  It also permits a woman, upon whom an abortion is performed, to recover in a civil action from the person who engaged in such violation all damages available under Georgia's tort law.  It also addresses the right to recover for the death of an unborn child resulting from an abortion ("unborn child" is defined in O.C.G.A. § 16-5-80).  A woman who has an abortion will not be held criminally or civilly liable as a result of such abortion for any violation of this Code section or for the solicitation or for conspiracy to violate this Code section.  The Georgia Composite Medical Board is to receive immediate notification of any criminal investigation initiated regarding this Code section.  Confidentiality relating to the patient's personal medical information is also addressed.  The Bill also adds language in the definition of the term "racketeering activity" in O.C.G.A. § 16-14-3.

Committee News

House Judiciary Non-Civil Committee

Today, the House Judiciary Non-Civil Committee held an extensive hearing regarding HB 1040, authorizing proxy caregivers to give assistance to disabled Georgians in their home. Trial lawyers, disability providers and individuals, the State's Ombudsman for the elderly, and the Georgia Alzheimer's Association supported the Bill in its substitute form as brought by the Governors office. The Governor's staff accented that the legislation was part of the settlement discussion with Department of Justice in the lawsuit about the State's mental hospitals.  GAHA asked that services by Medicare-enrolled home health agencies and private duty services in personal care homes be excluded from Bill.  After much discussion, Rep. Sharon Cooper (R-Marietta) made a motion to give the proposal a "do pass" recommendation.  Rep. Thompson offered an amendment to add "assisted living facility or licensed personal care homes offering care for four or more individual."  This is the language which GAHA had requested.  Rep. Jimmy Pruett, the Floor Leader for the Governor carrying the proposal, said that the issue would be left up to the Committee to decide.  The Amendment failed with only one vote for it.  Rep. Bobby Franklin (R-Marietta) asked that standards be written into the statute.  The Bill passed with only one no vote, which was by Rep. Franklin.
