Bill > SB1457

This bill proposes amendments to the city charter of Portland, Tennessee, with a specific focus on deleting Article XII and replacing it with a placeholder noting it was repealed by a 2025 amendment. The bill requires approval from at least two-thirds of Portland's legislative body before it can take effect, with the presiding officer of that body responsible for proclaiming the approval or rejection and certifying the result to the secretary of state. The bill becomes immediately effective for the purpose of its own approval process, but will only fully take effect if and when it receives the required local legislative support. While the specific details of the deleted and replaced Article XII are not provided in the bill text, the bill appears to be a routine administrative update to remove obsolete or superseded provisions from the city's charter, which is a common practice to keep municipal governing documents current and clear.
