SB 2453 extends two key deadlines for counties bordering distressed rural counties related to commercial development district tax retention. It moves the deadline for counties to apply to retain sales tax from December 31, 2026, to December 31, 2040, and extends the commissioner’s approval deadline from June 30, 2031, to June 30, 2041. These changes apply specifically to counties seeking to retain tax revenue generated from commercial developments within designated districts. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 67, Chapter 6, to provide longer timelines for these administrative processes.
