HB 2217 removes a provision that allowed the speaker of the Tennessee House or Senate to appoint a state legislator from a district that was part of a central business improvement district as of January 1, 1999, as an ex officio board member for certain regional authorities and special districts. This change eliminates an alternative appointment method for board members of these entities, affecting how their governance structures are composed. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated by deleting subdivision (2) from Section 7-84-519(d) in Title 7 and also affects Titles 9 and 67.
