The Georgia General Assembly approved a makeover to statewide Sunshine Laws in the last week of this year’s legislative session.The bill aims to clarify rules on open meetings and open records for Georgia agencies, including city and county governments.“Government needs to be open and transparent. That’s the basis on which all government should operate,” state Sen. Butch Miller said.At the same time, the bill would close off open records requests for big economic development projects still under negotiations.The bill now awaits the signature of Gov. Nathan Deal.Local government officials say many of the revisions in the bill already were in practice.“I can’t see that it changed a whole lot,” Hall County Commissioner Scott Gibbs said.
