Bill > SR601

This resolution, originating from the Senate, formally recognizes and commends the City of Powder Springs for its significant historical, economic, and cultural contributions to the State of Georgia. The resolution highlights the city's founding in 1838 as Springville, its development influenced by mineral springs that led to its renaming in 1859 due to the black, gunpowder-like residue from the water, and its current status as a vibrant community near Atlanta known for its historic downtown, community events, and commitment to service and innovation. The Senate's action is a formal acknowledgment of the city's outstanding citizens, leaders, and employees, and the Secretary of the Senate is directed to distribute copies of this resolution to the public and the press.
