TITLE 2 AGRICULTURE

Section 3. Georgia Agricultural Exposition Authority, 2-3-1 through 2-3-15.

2-3-4. Purpose and general business of authority.

The corporate purpose and the general nature of the business of the authority shall be:

  1. The provision of a facility for the agricultural community to present, exhibit, and promote its products and livestock to agribusiness persons and the public in an effort to boost the state's economy;
  2. The exhibition and promotion of agricultural accomplishments by the youth of this state;
  3. The provision of facilities and programs for public events, exhibits, and other activities, such as, but not limited to, fairs, nonagricultural exhibits, concerts, rodeos, flea markets, and auctions, which will make the authority as financially self-supporting as possible, benefit the state's economy, and attract the traveling public; and
  4. The promotion and staging of a state-wide fair at least once a year to accomplish one or more of the above purposes.

(Code 1981, §12-3-473, enacted by Ga. L. 1985, p. 801, § 1; Code 1981, §2-3-4, as redesignated by Ga. L. 2011, p. 261, § 4/HB 125.)

Editor's notes.

- By resolution (Ga. L. 1986, p. 1197), the General Assembly authorized the designation of the main exhibition building at the Georgia Agricultural Exposition Center as the "Sam P. McGill Exhibition Building."

By resolution (Ga. L. 1986, p. 1198), the General Assembly authorized the designation of the show arena at the Georgia Agricultural Exposition Center as the "Henry L. Reaves Arena."

OPINIONS OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

Authority not entitled to recreational exemption from federal overtime requirements.

- Since it was clear from former O.C.G.A. § 12-3-473 (see now O.C.G.A. § 2-3-4) that the Georgia Agricultural Exposition Authority's principal activity was not that of an amusement park, recreational establishment, organized camp, or nonprofit educational conference center, the authority cannot qualify for the recreational exemption from the overtime requirements of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 213(a)(3). 1989 Op. Att'y Gen. No. 89-8.
