AI Summary
- Expands the definition of "applicant" under Georgia's conflicts of interest in zoning actions law (O.C.G.A. § 36-67A-1) to include any person with a direct ownership interest in real property subject to a rezoning action
- Extends the definition to also cover attorneys or other persons representing or acting on behalf of property owners with a direct ownership interest, not just those representing the person who filed the rezoning application
- Previously, "applicant" covered only the person applying for a rezoning action and their representatives; the expanded definition closes a loophole by capturing property owners and their agents who may not be the direct filer
- Sponsored by Senators Martin (9th), Kirkpatrick (32nd), Dolezal (27th), and Albers (56th); passed the Georgia Senate
