SB 1918 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Union County - Subject to local approval, changes the building permit fee to fifty cents per square foot on all buildings constructed, erected, or reconstructed. - Amends Chapter 87 of the Private Acts of 1973; as amended.

SB 1918 changes Union County's building permit fee to $0.50 per square foot for all new construction, reconstruction, or erection of buildings. It exempts sheds and barns from the fee and repeals conflicting local fee provisions. The bill requires approval by a two-thirds vote of Union County's legislative body before taking effect. This is a procedural local ordinance amendment, not a statewide policy change.
