Senate Bill 145, sponsored by Walley, amends the Tennessee Code Annotated regarding courthouse square revitalization. The bill specifically modifies Section 67-6-103(h)(2) by deleting the phrase "until June 30, 2028," which likely removes a time limitation on the revitalization efforts. Additionally, it replaces the last sentence of the same subdivision with a new definition of the "courthouse square revitalization zone," specifying that it includes the area defined as of June 1, 2015.

The bill aims to provide clarity and potentially extend the revitalization efforts for courthouse squares in Tennessee by removing the previous deadline and establishing a clear definition of the revitalization zone. This change is intended to support ongoing revitalization initiatives and ensure that the designated areas are recognized for their importance in community development. The act will take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency of the public welfare in this matter.
