of Section 2 and inserting in lieu thereof the following:
"(b)
For the purpose of electing members of the board of education, the Glascock

districts shall be and correspond to those four numbered districts described in
and attached to and made a part of this Act and further identified as 'Plan:

The term 'VTD' shall mean and describe the same geographical boundaries as
provided in the report of the Bureau of the Census for the United States
decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia. The separate numeric
designations in a district description which are underneath a 'VTD' heading
shall mean and describe individual Blocks within a VTD as provided in the report
of the Bureau of the Census for the United States decennial census of 2010 for
the State of Georgia.
(2)
Except as otherwise provided in the description of any district, whenever the
description of such district refers to a named city, it shall mean the
geographical boundaries of that city as shown on the census map for the United

(d)
Any part of Glascock County which is not included in any such district described

contiguous to such part which contains the least population according to the
United States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia.
(e)
Any part of Glascock County which is described in subsection (b) of this section
as being in a particular district shall nevertheless not be included within such
district if such part is not contiguous to such district. Such noncontiguous
part shall instead be included within that district contiguous to such part
which contains the least population according to the United States decennial
census of 2010 for the State of Georgia.

The members of the board of education who were elected at the general election
in November, 2010, shall continue in office for the terms to which they were
elected and until successors are elected and qualified as provided in this Act.
