ARLB016 Georgia bill introduced
A bill introduced in the Georgia Legislature that would eliminate
the effect of restrictive property covenants on amateurs is believed
to be the first of its type in the nation, according to Georgia
Section Manager Jim Altman, N4UCK.
The bill, H.B. 1134, would prevent all new and renewed covenants
from regulating, controlling, or restricting antennas owned and
operated by licensed amateurs in the state.
Altman said that, in Georgia, all restrictive covenants have a life
of 20 years, but can be renewed. This law, in banning new and
renewed covenants, would leave the existing covenants in place until
their natural expiration, and prevent new ones. Over the next 20
years, all existing covenants would disappear.
The bill was initially referred to the State Bar committee on real
property law, which gave the measure a ''do pass'' recommendation.
Amateurs in Georgia are urged to contact their state legislators and
urge their support of H.B. 1134. For more information, contact
Altman or the Regulatory Information Branch at ARRL Headquarters.
