Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the emergency communications board to June 30, 2031. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 7, Chapter 86.
HB 245 extends the emergency communications board's operation until June 30, 2031, by amending Tennessee law to prevent its automatic termination. The board, responsible for coordinating statewide emergency communication systems, will continue overseeing critical infrastructure without interruption. The bill updates two sections of state code (Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 7, Chapter 86) to set this new expiration date. This ensures ongoing coordination of emergency communication services for Tennessee residents and state agencies.
