There Is a Newer Version
of
the Georgia Code
2006 Georgia Code - 8-3-4
8-3-4. In each city and in each county of the state
there is created a public body corporate and politic to be known as
the 'housing authority' of the city or county; provided, however,
that such authority shall not transact any business or exercise its
powers under this article until or unless the governing body of the
city or the county, as the case may be, by proper resolution shall
declare at any time hereafter that there is need for an authority
to function in such city or county. The determination as to whether
there is such need for an authority to function may be made by the
governing body on its own motion or shall be made by the governing
body upon the filing of a petition signed by 25 residents of the
city or county, as the case may be, asserting that there is need
for an authority to function in such city or county and requesting
that the governing body so declare.
