Bill > HB0847

This bill modifies Tennessee's existing wastewater authority regulations by reducing the annual budget preparation timeline for the executive director of water and wastewater treatment authorities from 60 days to 45 days before the start of the fiscal year. Specifically, the bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated Section 68-221-1306(c)(1) to shorten the budget preparation and submission window, which could potentially help streamline administrative processes for these authorities. The change is relatively minor but may enable quicker budget planning and approval. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as stated in Section 2, which emphasizes that the public welfare requires its prompt implementation. By condensing the budget preparation timeline, the legislation aims to potentially increase efficiency in municipal water and wastewater management administrative procedures.
