SB 1135 shortens the notice period for nuisance-related legal actions in Tennessee from five to four days under specific sections of state law (TCA §29-3-106(a)(1) and (c)). This change directly affects property owners, local governments, and legal entities handling nuisance complaints, as it reduces the required time to notify parties before certain enforcement actions.
