are children’s courts. The GNTF is presently building five (5)
additional adult courts.

I Liheslatura finds that the local tennis federation is expanding to provide additional tennis courts for their members and the public. Currently, private businesses are donating to the GNTF for the development, maintenance, and operation of the GNTC, including the construction of additional tennis courts.

Therefore, it is the intent of I Liheslatura to allow businesses contributing to the construction, development, upgrade, repair, or maintenance of the GNTC to be eligible for tax credits.
