An

by revising Section 1 as follows:
"SECTION
1.
(a)
For the purpose of electing members of the board of education of Chattooga
County, the Chattooga County School District shall be divided into five
education districts. The districts shall be and correspond to those five
numbered districts described in and attached to and made a part of this Act and
further identified as 'Plan Name: chattsb-2012 Plan Type: Local Administrator:
Chattooga SB User: Gina'.
(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 Chattooga County 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 Chattooga County 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."
