Randolph airport authority inherits assets and debts

The law renames the Lower Chattahoochee Regional Airport Authority as the Randolph County Airport Authority. It takes over all the former authority’s assets, interests, debts, and other obligations. It remains a permanent Georgia public body that can make contracts, sue, and be sued. Its bonds require court approval under Georgia’s Revenue Bond Law. The court petition can name state or local government bodies with contracts for the project’s services and facilities. Those parties must explain why the court should not review their contract terms. Court approval makes the bonds and related security final and binding on the authority and participating government parties.
