Staff Analysis of the Legislation

SUMMARY:  LC 35 3016S
This bill was revised by the House Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security to be an omnibus guns bill.  Like HB 512 it contains HB 35, allowing local boards of education to designate school personnel to be armed. See section 1-7, starting on line 474 of the bill. 
 
Section 1-4, starting on line 125, also makes some changes to O.C.G.A. 16-11-127.1, the code section on carrying weapons within school safety zones.  These provisions were also in HB 512.  The substantive changes made to the section deal with postsecondary campuses.
