HB 2390 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Utilities, Utility Districts - As enacted, clarifies that commissioners for utility districts created pursuant to the Utility District Law of 1937 in Gibson County are not prohibited from serving more than two consecutive terms. - Amends TCA Title 7, Chapter 82, Part 3.

HB 2390 modifies Tennessee law to clarify that utility district commissioners in Gibson County are not prohibited from serving more than two consecutive terms. The bill specifically amends the population thresholds in the Utility District Law (TCA § 7-82-307) to include Gibson County's 2020 census population range (42,700-42,800 residents). This change directly affects commissioners serving on Gibson County utility districts under the 1937 Utility District Law. The provision removes a prior restriction on consecutive terms for commissioners in counties meeting these specific population criteria.
