Staff Analysis of the Legislation

This legislation requires counties that participate in the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority (GRTA), Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA), or some other mass transportation regional system to hold a referendum prior to the spending funds on establishing, maintaining or operating a fixed guideway transit (i.e., a public transportation system that uses and occupies a permanent, separate right of way reserved for the use by trains or a bus rapid transit systems).
