AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 7, Chapter 40, specifically Section 7-40-104(c)(1), by extending the timeframe for municipalities to submit documentation about economic development project costs from 30 to 45 days after the end of a fiscal year. This change allows local governments more time to compile and certify detailed financial documentation related to economic development projects through their chief financial officer. The expanded window gives municipalities additional flexibility in reporting and documenting the costs associated with local economic development initiatives. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as determined by the Tennessee General Assembly, with the stated rationale that the change serves the public welfare by providing municipalities with more administrative flexibility in project cost reporting.
