AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee law regarding tourism development authorities by modifying reporting requirements. Specifically, it mandates that tourism development authorities must now file their annual audit and report not only with the governing body of the municipality that granted them permission to organize, but also with each state legislator representing that municipality. The bill additionally allows these reports to be filed electronically, which provides more flexibility in how the documents are submitted. The change aims to increase transparency by ensuring that local legislators receive direct access to annual financial and operational information about tourism development authorities in their districts. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as determined by the Tennessee General Assembly.
