HB 2668 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Monterey - Subject to local approval, deletes obsolete provisions authorizing the mayor to serve as the ex officio recorder for the town of Monterey; establishes the position of Town Administrator and prescribes the Administrator's powers, duties, and functions. - Amends Chapter 492 of the Acts of 1901; as amended.

This Tennessee bill restructures the town government of Monterey by creating a new Town Administrator position and removing the Mayor's role as the town's official recorder. The new Administrator would be appointed by the Board of Mayor and Aldermen, must live in Putnam County, and would handle key duties such as managing finances, overseeing personnel, and coordinating town departments. However, these changes will only take effect if the town's legislative body votes to approve them with a two-thirds majority.
