HR 1673 Georgia House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Jimmy "Lord" Brown Intersection; Chatham County; dedicate

This bill designates the intersection of State Route 204 and Middleground Road in Chatham County as the Jimmy "Lord" Brown Intersection to honor the musician's contributions to American music. The legislation authorizes the Georgia Department of Transportation to install and maintain signs marking the dedication, recognizing Brown as a founding member and master horn player of the funk band Brick. By naming the intersection after him, the bill formally acknowledges his legacy as a saxophone, flute, trumpet, and trombone player whose brass-driven sound helped define funk and rhythm and blues. This measure is a commemorative resolution that does not alter existing laws or policies but serves to recognize cultural contributions through official naming.
