Bill > HB1660

This bill, concerning racing facilities in Tennessee, establishes protections for these operations by preventing lawsuits from surrounding property owners if the racing facility was established before the property owner acquired their land or before the property was developed within a five-mile radius of the facility. It clarifies that "racing facility" and "racetrack" refer to areas where competitive vehicle and motorsport races occur, including associated grounds and buildings. The bill also states that these protections apply even if the facility's size, scope, or type of racing changes, as long as those changes are lawful, and it covers claims filed after the bill becomes law, regardless of when the issue arose. Furthermore, it prohibits local governments from enacting rules that would unfairly restrict racing facility operations, though it does not exempt them from environmental or health and safety regulations.
