Representative Lewis Ward presented House Bill 1222, explaining that the bill would amend the Georgia Condominium Act and the Georgia Property Owners Association Act to allow those entities to charge no more than $250 for a closing or settlement letter.
Chairman Powell asked whether the bill was substantially the same as a version passed in 2019 that was later vetoed; Ward said the measure had been amended and is applicable today. The presentation to the Rules Committee was brief and drew no follow‑up questions beyond the clarification on its relation to the earlier bill.
The committee did not record a vote on HB 1222 at the Rules meeting.
