New Method Lets Georgia Pay Teachers From Public Debt Fund
Georgia teachers will receive salaries on time this year for the spring portion of the term. Attorney General Terrell ruled that the state may apply the public debt fund to interest as well as principal, allowing $175,000 due July 1 to be paid from the fund while preserving obligations. Gov. Candler and Treasurer Speer supported using the fund to pay teachers, a novel interpretation of state law that keeps salaries current.

Attorney General Tarrell concludes that the constitution views bonded debt as including interest due, not requiring a reserve from sale proceeds. The text supports using general appropriation funds for interest payments and rejects hoarding public property proceeds as a primary debt reserve.
