Bill Summary
Subject to local approval, increases from six to seven the number of school districts and school board members in Cheatham County.
AI Summary
This bill, if approved by the Cheatham County legislative body, will increase the number of school districts in Cheatham County from six to seven, with each district electing one member to the county board of education, thereby increasing the total number of board members from six to seven. The new districts will be established by the county legislative body and must be of substantially equal population, with the change taking effect for the general election in August 2032. During this transition, current board members will serve out their terms, and one new member will be elected in 2032 to a four-year term to fill the newly created position, ensuring staggered four-year terms for all board members thereafter. The bill requires a two-thirds vote from the Cheatham County legislative body for approval, and its effectiveness for all purposes is contingent on this local approval.
