GA HB570

Designations from international organizations (including the United Nations, UNESCO, and WHO) have no legal or regulatory effect in Georgia unless expressly authorized by the General Assembly

State agencies and local governments are prohibited from using international organization designations as a basis for policymaking, zoning, permitting, land use planning, environmental review, or as justification for denying permits

Government actions that diminish property value or restrict property use based on unauthorized international designations constitute a regulatory taking requiring just compensation under the Georgia Constitution

State and local governments cannot enter agreements with international organizations affecting land use, implement policies derived from their recommendations, or participate in designation processes affecting Georgia land without legislative authorization

Private parties adversely affected by violations may sue for declaratory or injunctive relief and recover attorney's fees and court costs if they prevail
