Senate Bill 339 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 13-7-403(a)(1), to change the term length for members of the historic zoning commission from five years to six years. The bill maintains the provision for staggered terms, ensuring that at least one but no more than two members' terms expire each year. The existing language regarding the initial appointments and staggered terms remains unchanged.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that current members of historic zoning commissions will complete their elected terms without extension. As these terms expire, the chief executive responsible for making appointments will fill vacancies with new members who will serve six-year terms. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of public welfare.
