Bill Summary

AN ACT To amend Article 1 of Chapter 3 of Title 12 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to general provisions regarding parks, historic areas, memorials, and recreation, so as to provide for free admission to state parks on certain public and legal holidays; to provide for a definition; to provide for related matters; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill amends Georgia law to provide free admission to state parks, historic sites, and recreational areas for residents on certain public and legal holidays. It defines "fee" as the charge established by the Board of Natural Resources for using these areas and specifies that no such fee will be collected from Georgia residents on any public and legal holiday as defined by Code Section 1-4-1. This change aims to make state parks more accessible to the public on designated holidays.
