Staff Analysis of the Legislation

HB 85 (Reps. Harrell-R, Kidd-I, Epps-R)

This one started off as something that had nothing to do with education, but in the process has had language included that can have an impact statewide on what type of business may locate near schools.  

As currently written, this bill would  amend O.C.G.A. ยง 3-3-21 to permit "grocery stores", licensed to sell only wine and malt beverages to locate within 100 yards of any school building or school grounds.

Short Note: May add to sell near schools admendment
