Code Commission notes.

- The amendment of this Code section by Ga. L. 2008, p. VO1, §§ 1-9, irreconcilably conflicted with and was treated as superseded by Ga. L. 2008, p. 846, § 33/HB 1245. See County of Butts v. Strahan, 151 Ga. 417 (1921).

Editor's notes.

- Ga. L. 2008, p. VO1, which amended this Code section, was passed by the General Assembly as HB 529 at the 2007 regular session but vetoed by the Governor on May 30, 2007. The General Assembly overrode that veto on January 28, 2008, and the Act became effective on that date.
