SECTION
1.
An
Act providing for the election of members of the Board of Education of Jeff
Davis County, approved March 27, 1972 (Ga. L. 1972, p. 2760), as amended, is
amended by striking subsections (a) and (b) of Section 1 of said Act and
inserting in lieu thereof the following:
"(a)
Those members of the Board of Education of Jeff Davis County who are serving as
such immediately prior to January 1, 2006, and any person selected to fill a
vacancy in any such office shall continue to serve as such members until the
regular expiration of their respective terms of office and upon the election and
qualification of their respective successors. On and after January 1, 2006, the
Board of Education of Jeff Davis County shall consist of seven members, five of
whom shall be elected from education districts described in subsection (b) of
this section and two of whom shall be elected at large as provided in subsection
(c) of this section. Education Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, as they exist
immediately prior to January 1, 2006, shall continue to be designated as
Education Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively, but as newly described
under this Act, and on and after January 1, 2006, such members of the board
serving from those former education districts shall be deemed to be serving from
and representing their respective districts as newly described under this
Act.
(b)(1)
For purposes of electing members of the board of education, other than the two
members who are elected at large, the Jeff Davis County School District is
divided into five education districts. One member of the board shall be elected
from each such district. The five education districts shall be and correspond
to those five numbered districts described in and attached to and made a part of
this Act and further identified as Plan Name: jeffdccsbw3 Plan Type: Local
User: staff Administrator: Jeff Davis.
(2)
When used in such attachment, the terms 'Tract' and 'BG' (Block Group) shall
mean and describe the same geographical boundaries as provided in the report of
the Bureau of the Census for the United States decennial census of 2000 for the
State of Georgia. The separate numeric designations in a Tract description
which are underneath a 'BG' heading shall mean and describe individual Blocks
within a Block Group as provided in the report of the Bureau of the Census for
the United States decennial census of 2000 for the State of Georgia. Any part
of the Jeff Davis County School District which is not included in any such
district described in that attachment shall be included within that district
contiguous to such part which contains the least population according to the
United States decennial census of 2000 for the State of Georgia. Any part of
the Jeff Davis County School District which is described in that attachment as
being in a particular district shall nevertheless not be included within such
district if such part is not contiguous to such district. Such noncontiguous
part shall instead be included within that district contiguous to such part
which contains the least population according to the United States decennial
census of 2000 for the State of Georgia. Except as otherwise provided in the
description of any education district, whenever the description of such district
refers to a named city, it shall mean the geographical boundaries of that city
as shown on the census map for the United States decennial census of 2000 for
the State of
Georgia."
SECTION
2.
The
Board of Education of Jeff Davis County shall through its legal counsel cause
this Act to be submitted for preclearance under the federal Voting Rights Act of
1965, as amended; and such submission shall be made to the United States
Department of Justice or filed with the appropriate court no later than 60 days
after the date on which this Act is approved by the Governor or otherwise
becomes law without such approval.
SECTION
3.
This
section and Section 2 of this Act and those provisions of this Act necessary for
the election of members of the Board of Education of Jeff Davis County in 2006
shall become effective upon the approval of this Act by the Governor or upon its
becoming law without such approval. The remaining provisions of this Act shall
become effective January 1, 2006.
SECTION
4.
All
laws and parts of laws in conflict with this Act are
repealed.
