An
Act providing for the composition of the Board of Education of Ben Hill County,
approved March 22, 1990 (Ga. L. 1990, p. 4435), as amended, particularly by an
Act approved May 1, 2002 (Ga. L. 2002, p. 5169), is amended
by revising Section 2 as follows:
"SECTION
2.
(a)
For purposes of electing members of the board of education, the Ben Hill County
School District is divided into seven education districts. One member of the
board shall be elected from each such district. The seven education districts
shall be and correspond to those seven numbered districts described in and
attached to and made a part of this Act and further identified as 'Plan:
benhillsb-2012 Plan Type: local Administrator: ben hill sb User:
bak'.
(b)
For the purposes of such plan:
(1)
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; and
(2)
Except as otherwise provided in the description of any district, whenever the
description of any district refers to a named city, it shall mean the
geographical boundaries of that city as shown on the census maps for the United
States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia.
(c)
Any part of the Ben Hill County School District which is not included in any
district described in subsection (a) of this section shall 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.
(d)
Any part of the Ben Hill County School District which is described in subsection
(a) of this section as being included 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.
(e)
Those members of the Board of Education of Ben Hill County who are serving as
such on the effective date of this section and any person selected to fill a
vacancy in any such office shall continue to serve as such members until the
regular expiration of their respective terms of office and upon the election and
qualification of their respective successors.
(f)
Education Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, as they exist immediately prior to
the effective date of this section, shall continue to be designated as Education
Districts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, respectively, but as newly described under
this section, and on and after the effective date of this section, such members
of the board serving from those former education districts shall be deemed to be
serving from and representing their respective districts as newly described
under this section.
(g)
Successors to those members representing Education Districts 1, 2, 3, and 7
shall be elected in the 2014 nonpartisan general election and shall take office
on January 1, 2015, for a term of office of four years and until their
respective successors are elected and qualified. Successors to those members
representing Education Districts 4, 5, and 6 shall be elected in the 2012
nonpartisan general election and shall take office on January 1, 2013, for a
term of office of four years and until their respective successors are elected
and qualified. Thereafter, successors shall be elected at the nonpartisan
general election immediately preceding the expiration of the respective terms of
office and shall take office on January 1 immediately following such election
for terms of office of four years and until their respective successors are
elected and qualified."
SECTION
2.
The
Board of Education of Ben Hill County shall through its legal counsel cause this
Act to be submitted for preclearance under Section 5 of the federal Voting
Rights Act of 1965, as amended, not later than 45 days after the date on which
this Act is approved by the Governor or otherwise becomes law without such
approval.
SECTION
3.
All
laws and parts of laws in conflict with this Act are repealed.
