Editor’s notes.
Ga. L. 1982, p. 996, § 6, which had been codified as subsection (c) of § 48-5-405 , stated that it amended § 48-5-405 but appears to have been intended as an amendment to this Code section. Ga. L. 1983, p. 414, § 1, effective July 1, 1983, repealed subsection (c) of § 48-5-405 as added by Ga. L. 1982, p. 996, § 6. The repealed subsection dealt with the disbursement of educational funds collected by tax commissioners and collectors in counties with populations between 150,300 and 155,000.
Ga. L. 1983, p. 4113, § 1, effective July 1, 1983, not codified by the General Assembly, provides that the tax commissioner in Clayton County shall remit all education funds collected by him to the board of education of Clayton County, except for 1.60 percent of those funds which he is to remit to the governing authority of Clayton County to reimburse the county for the expenses incurred in collecting school taxes. Section 2 of that Act provides that: “It is the intention of this Act to reduce the amount authorized by subsection (a) of Code Section 48-5-404 of the O.C.G.A. as reimbursement to counties for the collection of school taxes, and this Act is pursuant to the specific authority of Paragraph III of Section VI of Article VIII of the Constitution of the State of Georgia.
