County Priority Legislation Passed in 2011 2 The Association County Commissioners of Georgia strives to ensure that counties can provide the necessary leadership, services and programs to meet the health, safety and welfare needs of their citizens. With nearly a century of experience in working on behalf of local government, ACCG has built a solid foundation focused on providing quality member services to meet the needs of local officials. 3 Public Policy Development Process ACCG redesigned the association’s policy development process to allow the ACCG policy team to have more time to focus on county legislative priorities. By developing a two year policy platform, ACCG has aligned the policy development process with the biennial Georgia legislature. ACCG will still update the platform each year, but the association can set more long-term priorities and work proactively. ACCG has developed a network of County Legislative Coordinators who serve as the point people for their counties during the legislative session and provide information to support the work of the policy team. Implementation of Passed Legislation ACCG played a lead role in providing information to county officials on the planning process and implementation schedule developed for the regional transportation sales tax that was approved through the passage of House Bill 277 in 2010. ACCG staff also attended many of the Regional Roundtable meetings over the last year to monitor discussions and answer questions. Throughout this process, ACCG has worked closely with Georgia Department of Transportation Commissioner Vance Smith and Planning Director Todd Long. ACCG Government Relations Manager Dave Wills current serves on Georgia Geospatial Advisory Council and was recently named as co-chairman This council was created by the passage of House Bill 169 in 2010 and was charged with auditing Georgia’s Geographic Information Systems capabilities at the county, regional and state level. The Council met several times and developed recommendations which were submitted to the General Assembly in 2011 on how to move forward in achieving governmental GIS interoperability in the areas of floodplain management and notification, service delivery, transportation, public safety, economic development and more. In July, ACCG held five Property Tax and Transportation Workshops throughout the state led by Legislative Director Clint Mueller and Associate Legislative Director Matt Hicks to explain legislation passed during the 2010 legislative session as well as the implications and implementation requirements for counties. ACCG offered a follow up to these sessions in April to remind county officials about the changes to the requirements for property tax assessments and appeals. 2010 Elections In cooperation the Georgia Municipal Association, the Georgia School Boards Association and the Georgia Superintendents Association, ACCG hosted a Candidate Forum to give candidates seeking a statewide office the chance to address local elected officials. 4 County Priority Legislation Following the 2010 elections, ACCG policy staff met with members of Governor Deal’s transition team as well as Passed in 2011 new state agency heads. In addition, the policy staff also reached out to new state legislators to begin building HB 92 relationships and to explain the role of local government.

Twenty-five commissioners representing 19 counties, including 7 ACCG Board members, participated. The tour stopped in three counties - Liberty, Glynn, and Charlton - where attendees learned about work being conducted at Ft. Stewart and UGA’s Marine Extension offices, as well as fire mitigation, green infrastructure and nature tourism at the Okefenokee Swamp. In the last year, ACCG and the Carl Vinson Institute of Government recognized 48 individuals for completing the Certified Commissioners Advanced Program and 31 individuals for completing the Commissioners Training Program. These individuals joined the more than 2,600 county officials that have been certified since the program’s inception. In addition, recognition for the Standard of Excellence Program continues to grow, with 17 county officials achieving gold or silver status this year. In 2011, ACCG and the Carl Vinson Institute of Government will host two Mobile Classrooms. The first one is scheduled for May 19 – 20, 2011 and will focus on the connection between natural resources and economic development in northwest Georgia, including visits to Cloudland Canyon State Park and Shaw Industries (carpet manufacturer) as well as a boat tour of the Coosa River. The second one will be August 18—19, 2011 in the Richmond County area. ACCG Conferences All of ACCG’s major meetings have been thoroughly examined and redeveloped with an eye to providing outstanding educational opportunities and maximizing the use of the participant’s time and the county’s financial resources. ACCG has added more Standard of Excellence opportunities, focused on current issues and trends and condensed the length of the meetings. In October, the ACCG Legislative Leadership Conference welcomed over 250 county officials to Atlanta/ Fulton County. More than 76 counties had a registered delegate that attended the business session to vote on the 2011-2012 County Platform. In addition to commissioners training program courses, ACCG also offered two well-attended Standard of Excellence Sessions: 1) County Budgets and Constitutional Officers and 2) Preparing for Service Delivery Negotiations. More than 150 newly elected officials attended the Newly Elected Commissioners Conference held in Athens-Clarke County at the University of Georgia Continuing Education Center in December. The 6 agenda for this conference celebrated leadership, provided a foundation for county governance, explained ACCG programs and services and encouraged future participation in the association. Keynote speakers included former Secretary of State and Young Harris College President Cathy Cox, University of Georgia President Dr. Michael Adams and Olympian Sam Graddy. Responses from participants were overwhelmingly positive, and many new commissioners have attended other ACCG conferences and training programs. Governor Nathan Deal, Lt. Governor Casey Cagle and House Speaker David Ralston served as the keynote speakers for the ACCG Capitol Connection

While some were on the lighter side – such as naming the judicial center after Governor Nathan Deal and commending the Atlanta Braves 2018 season – some notables include the following: HB 2 – (Rep. Matt Gurtler) Allows certain Georgians to carry a firearm without a permit. HB 8 – (Rep. Debbie Buckner) Exempts certain women’s hygiene products from state sales tax. HR 2 – (Rep. Scot Turner) Prohibits the use of a poll tax in Georgia. HR 6 – (Rep. Michael Caldwell) Provides for term limits for state elected officials. SB 2 – (Sen. Steve Gooch) Allows for EMCs to partner with internet companies to provide broadband service to members. HOT BUTTON ISSUES FOR 2019 Education Throughout the campaign, Governor Kemp presented education as one of his top priorities. Included in this is teacher compensation and a priority on mental health counselors in schools as well as school security. We will also continue to watch and see how the state proceeds with the implementation of the testing pilot program passed in 2018. One complication in education policy in 2019 is a void in leadership in each Chamber. With the retirement of Brooks Coleman in the House and Senator Lindsey Tippins resigning his chairmanship, both committees are currently without a leader. We expect the new chairs to be announced any day now. Rural Georgia Throughout the 2018 Legislative Session and the 2018 Campaign season, we saw a recurring theme in that legislators see the need for reforms that aid rural Georgia.

    House of Representatives JON BURNS MAJORITY LEADER ROOM 338, STATE CAPITOL ATLANTA, GEORGIA 30334 December 4, 2020 SENT VIA EMAIL: Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger Chairperson of the State Election Board Mrs. Rebecca N. Sullivan Vice-Chairperson of the State Election Board Dear Secretary Raffensperger and Mrs. Sullivan, As I am sure you have seen over the past month, many Georgians, including my colleagues who have signed this correspondence, have serious concerns about Georgia’s elections. As we approach a critical election on January 5, 2021, it is clear that Georgia voters must have confidence in the election process going forward. To that end, below you will find two common-sense suggestions: a rule that should be promulgated by the State Election Board (the “SEB”) and additional resources of which the Office of the Secretary of State (the “SOS”) or the SEB could take advantage. I. Absentee Ballot Application and Mail-In Absentee Ballot Signature Review Process. As the process currently stands, when a voter wishes to vote early by mail, they submit an Absentee Ballot Application (“Application”) either through the mail or online. When a local Board of Registrars (the “BOR”) receives a paper Application, typically, a single employee of the BOR is responsible for the initial review of a signature on a paper Application. If that paper Application is accepted, the BOR mails an Absentee Ballot to the voter. The process for reviewing signatures on the external envelope of a returned Absentee Ballot is the same – a single employee of the BOR is allowed to “approve” a signature without oversight by other employees or independent observers.

Please contact the principals above to learn more about the services of the firm. Weekly Legislative Report #6 Week Ending February 22nd, 2019 The General Assembly completed its 20th legislative day on Friday, the halfway point of its 40-day session. Floor sessions are lengthening and committee meetings are beginning to stretch into the 5:00 and 6:00 p.m. realm as more and more bills work their way through the multi-layered process. FY 2019 Amended Budget Completed The House and Senate on Friday passed the FYA 2019 budget with a couple of amendments, finishing the General Assembly’s work on funding for the fiscal year ending June 30. Legislators found an additional $250,000 for home delivered meals to decrease the waiting list in each Area Agency on Aging across the state. They added $2 million to help hospitals located in rural, federally designated counties adversely impacted by Hurricane Michael, and made $20 million available for loans to farmers impacted by the hurricane. The increases are based on an estimated 3.3% revenue growth through June 30. That’s more than the 1.5% growth the state has seen since July 1 of last year, but legislators were confident of balancing the budget as required by the state constitution. Your Doc Is Just a Phone Call Away . Senator Renee Unterman (R-Buford) lost her HHS Committee Chair, but she certainly hasn’t retired from the fight.
