The alleged "safe zone" laws are different from state to state. In Georgia, there is NO grandfathering. If you live on land that has been in your family for 100+ years and a park or school is built across the street, you have ten days to get out! In Oklahoma, however, as long as you owned your property prior to 11/1/2003, they cannot make you move, even if a school is built next door. Another interesting comparison is ...how do they measure? In Georgia, it is measured by GPS from the nearest corner of the so's property to the nearest corner of the school property. In Oklahoma, it is measured from the nearest corner of the school property to the nearest corner of the actual residence. A few months ago I was speaking with one of the Oklahoma Police Departments and said, "How do you measure this? As the crow flies or driving distance?" The officer stammered and said, "Ummm...I don't know...it's never come up before!" So...good luck...we're all on our own! For more entertaining news on Safety Zones follow the ACLU lawsuit just heating up in Oklahoma City. An SO took three real estate listings to the OKC PD and said, "Can I live in any of these?" OKC PD vetoed two and gave their blessing on the third. He bought it, took out a mortgage, and registered twice while living there. Now his wife is expecting, and all of a sudden, he was told to move out. For now he is being allowed to stay there, while the ACLU is preparing to argue the case in front of an ultra-conservative Republican Federal Judge. Anyone want to guess the outcome in advance? I think it can be summed up in four letters: M O V and E.
