ARTICLE 2 SERVICE DELIVERY

36-70-28. "Affected municipality" defined; review and revision of strategy.

  1. As used in this Code section, the term "affected municipality" means each municipality required to adopt a resolution approving the local government service delivery strategy pursuant to subsection (b) of Code Section 36-70-25.
  2. Each county and affected municipality shall review, and revise if necessary, the approved strategy:
    1. In conjunction with updates of the comprehensive plan as required by Article 1 of this chapter;
    2. Whenever necessary to change service delivery or revenue distribution arrangements;
    3. Whenever necessary due to changes in revenue distribution arrangements;
    4. In the event of the creation, abolition, or consolidation of local governments;
    5. When the existing service delivery strategy agreement expires; or
    6. Whenever the county and affected municipalities agree to revise the strategy.
  3. In the event that a county or an affected municipality located within the county refuses to review and revise, if necessary, a strategy in accordance with paragraphs (2) and (3) of subsection (b) of this Code section, then any of the parties may use the alternative dispute resolution and appeal procedures set forth in subsection (d) of Code Section 36-70-25.1.

(Code 1981, §36-70-28, enacted by Ga. L. 1997, p. 1567, § 1; Ga. L. 2000, p. 1439, § 3; Ga. L. 2006, p. 72, § 36/SB 465.)

JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Jurisdiction.

- When consent decrees were issued in an environmental suit against a city, and a municipality's incorporation led to service delivery proceedings in state court ten years later, the federal court lacked jurisdiction to enjoin the parties from pursuing the service delivery proceedings in state court under Georgia's Service Delivery Strategy Act, O.C.G.A. § 36-70-20 et seq., because the "in aid of its jurisdiction" exception in the Anti-Injunction Act did not apply, and the federal court lacked supplemental jurisdiction over the state service delivery proceeding issues under 28 U.S.C. § 1367. Upper Chattahoochee Riverkeeper Fund, Inc. v. City of Atlanta, 701 F.3d 669 (11th Cir. 2012).
