Public Officials - As enacted, prohibits an individual holding an elected office of a local government from holding another elected office in this state at the same time; grandfathers individuals holding more than one office presently until the terms expire; clarifies that such prohibition does not apply to an office in a political party's state executive committee. - Amends TCA Title 2 and Title 8.

HB 618 prohibits individuals from holding multiple elected local government offices in Tennessee simultaneously, affecting current and future local officials. It allows those already holding multiple local offices to retain them until their terms expire (grandfathering), but does not apply to roles in a political party's state executive committee. The bill amends Tennessee Code Sections 2 and 8 to establish this rule, with the law taking effect upon enactment. This is a policy change directly limiting dual-office holding for local elected positions.
