To amend an Act providing the method of election of the members to the Board of Education of Laurens County, approved March 18, 1986 (Ga. L. 1986, p. 3821), as amended, particularly by an Act approved April 18, 2002 (Ga.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF GEORGIA:

SECTION 1.
An Act providing the method of election of the members to the Board of Education of Laurens County, approved March 18, 1986 (Ga. L. 1986, p. 3821), as amended, particularly by an Act approved April 18, 2002 (Ga. L. 2002, p. 3950), is amended by revising Section 1 as follows:

"SECTION 1.
(a) The members of the Board of Education of Laurens County who are serving on the effective date of this Act and any person selected to fill a vacancy in any such office shall continue to serve as such members until the regular expiration of their terms of office and the election and qualification of their respective successors. On and after the effective date of this Act, the Board of Education of Laurens County shall consist of five members elected as provided in this Act. On and after the effective date of this Act, any election conducted to fill a vacancy on the Board of Education of Laurens County shall be conducted under the new rather than the former education districts.
(b) For the purpose of electing members of the board of education, the Laurens County School District is divided into five education districts, and those districts shall be and correspond to those five numbered districts described in and attached to this Act and made a part hereof and further identified as 'Plan Name: laursb-2012 Plan Type: Local Administrator: Laurens User: Gina'.
(c)(1) When used in such attachment, the term 'VTD' (voting tabulation district) shall mean and describe the same geographical boundaries as provided in the report of the Bureau of the Census for the United States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia.
(2) The separate numeric designations in a district description which are underneath a VTD heading shall mean and describe individual Blocks within a VTD as provided in the report of the Bureau of the Census for the United States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia. Any part of the Laurens County School District which is not included in any such district described in that attachment shall be included within that district contiguous to such part which contains the least population according to the United States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia.
(3) Any part of the Laurens County School District which is described in that attachment as being in a particular district shall nevertheless not be included within such district if such part is not contiguous to such district. Such noncontiguous part shall instead be included within that district contiguous to such part which contains the least population according to the United States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia.
(4) Except as otherwise provided in the description of any education district, whenever the description of such district refers to a named city, it shall mean the geographical boundaries of that city as shown on the census map for the United States decennial census of 2010 for the State of Georgia."

SECTION 2.
The Board of Education of Laurens County shall through its legal counsel cause this Act to be submitted for preclearance under the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965, as amended; and such submission shall be made to the United States Department of Justice or filed with the appropriate court no later than 45 days after the date on which this Act is approved by the Governor or otherwise becomes law without such approval.

SECTION 3.
This Act shall become effective upon its approval by the Governor or upon its becoming law without such approval.

SECTION 4.
All laws and parts of laws in conflict with this Act are repealed.
