OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
Editor's notes.
- In light of the similarities of the statutory provisions, opinions under former Ga. L. 1945, p. 229, §§ 1-6; Ga. L. 1976, p. 506, § 1; and Ga. L. 1981, Ex. Sess., p. 8 (Code Enactment Act), which were subsequently repealed but were succeeded by provisions in this article, are included in the annotations for this article.
Area vocational schools classified as "schools".- While such terms as "school" and "educational institution" are descriptive terms and are not really susceptible of precise definition, the area vocational schools maintained and operated by the State Board of Education would be classified as "schools" under any definition of the term. 1967 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 67-14 (decided under former Ga. L. 1945, p. 229; see also 1984 Op. Att'y Gen. 84-43).
State trade and technical school not subject to taxation.- State trade and technical school is legal, providing that such schools are set up for and on behalf of the state and providing for their operation from state appropriations makes such a school an instrumentality of the state and, as such, the school is not subject to state or federal taxation. 1945-47 Op. Att'y Gen. p. 195 (decided under former Ga. L. 1945, p. 229).
