McKillip open to sponsoring clarifying bill

Rep. Doug McKillip indicated that he'd be willing to sponsor legislation in the Georgia General Assembly if that was necessary to offer clarity to the Nuci's Space property tax exemption.

McKillip said that while he had not yet seen the ruling by the Court of Appeals, he agreed with the rationale offered by Judge Lawton Stephens during the Superior Court's earlier decision on the case. Regardless, he was willing to see what the state could do resolve the matter if that was needed ...

I would like to see the Court of Appeals rationale, but in any case I am more than willing to attempt to amend the law to accomplish its original purpose.
