It is the further purpose of this article to provide landowners with the guidance necessary to efficiently and properly identify and dispose of abandoned mobile homes in this state while protecting the rights of any owner, lienholder, or other interested parties by performing a due diligence search, notification, and hearing process.

2021 Georgia Code|Title 44 - Property|Chapter 9 - Easements|Article 2 - Solar Easements|§ 44-9-21. Legislative Findings and Declaration of Policy

 The General Assembly finds that the use of solar energy in this state can help reduce the nation's reliance upon imported fuels and that solar energy development should, therefore, be encouraged. The General Assembly further finds that, as the use of solar energy devices increases, the possibility of future shading of such devices by buildings or vegetation will also increase. Therefore, the General Assembly declares that solar easements may be established to allow the owner of a solar energy device to negotiate for assurance of continued access to sunlight.   (Ga. L. 1978, p. 2076, § 2.)   Cross references.   - Georgia State Energy Code for Buildings generally, §§ 8-2-22,8-2-27.
