House Resolution 1310

Chairman: Terry Barnard

Committee: State Institutions & Property

House Sponsor: Jim Cole

Chairman Barnard's opinion of this legislation:

This resolution authorizes the State Properties Commission to enter into appropriate boundary line dispute agreements pertaining to real property in Butts, Lamar, and Monroe counties and the conveyance of these properties. The dividing line between the state dam property and the adjacent homeowners property cannot be established without certainty due to a variety of factors beyond the control of the parties, including wave action, erosion, tree removal, and other land disturbing natural or manmade activities which have occurred since the state acquired the state dam property.

This resolution passed the House under the Open Rule.

Further Action

The Senate Substitute changes language dealing with high-water marks (p.3 lines 11-3), docks (p.3 lines 27-9), and exotic plants (p.3 lines 32-4).
