Georgia Proclaims Amendments on County Boards of Education

Georgia Acting Governor M E Thompson proclaims proposed constitutional amendments in 1947 regarding the creation of county boards of education in Spalding and Polk Counties. The measures would define election methods, district divisions, qualifications for superintendents, and a two mill tax for Polk and other related school system provisions. The amendments await ratification at the 1948 general election.

Georgia constitutional amendment to merge Columbus city and Muscogee county schools

The General Assembly would be authorized to pass a special act to merge the independent Columbus school system with the Muscogee County district outside the city limits into a single countywide system. The act would allow county-wide taxes and library provisions, with tax administration either by city and county boards or by a unified public body, and would remove homestead exemptions in this district. The measure references Article VIII Section VII Paragraph II and outlines taxing methods and governance.
