HB 2418 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Boards and Commissions - As introduced, increases, from 90 to 95, the number of days that the board of directors for a municipal energy authority has to fill a board vacancy created by the death, resignation, or removal of any director and gain approval of the applicable governing body. - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 5; Title 6; Title 7; Title 9; Title 12; Title 13; Title 48; Title 50; Title 64; Title 65 and Title 67.

HB 2418 amends Tennessee law to extend the deadline for filling vacancies on municipal energy authority boards from 90 to 95 days. This change applies directly to boards of directors for municipal energy authorities when a vacancy occurs due to a director's death, resignation, or removal. The bill specifically updates Tennessee Code Annotated Section 7-36-110(c) to reflect the new 95-day timeframe, requiring the board to fill the vacancy and gain governing body approval within this longer period. It affects local energy authorities and their oversight bodies across Tennessee, with no new policy requirements beyond the extended deadline.
