Bill Summary

Subject to local approval, removes charter provision restricting appointed officers from being employed outside of city business hours. - Amends Chapter 67 of the Private Acts of 1953; as amended.

AI Summary

This bill aims to modify the City of Gallatin's charter by removing a specific provision that previously required all city officers (except the city attorney) to devote their entire time to their respective city offices. The proposed change would allow appointed city officers to potentially be employed outside of city business hours, giving them more flexibility in their professional lives. The bill will only take effect if it receives approval from at least two-thirds of the Gallatin legislative body. The local legislative body must then officially proclaim their approval or rejection and certify the result to the Tennessee secretary of state. The bill becomes immediately effective for the purpose of the approval process, but its full implementation is contingent upon receiving the required local legislative support. This modification represents a localized change to the city's governance structure, specifically addressing employment restrictions for city officers.
