Senate Bill 1612, sponsored by Bailey, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 8-50-1301(b), to broaden the definition of office buildings that fall under certain regulations. The bill replaces the term "state-owned office buildings" with "state-owned or leased office buildings," thereby including leased properties in the applicable legal framework.
This change aims to ensure that both state-owned and leased office buildings are subject to the same regulations, enhancing oversight and management of state facilities. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the urgency of its implementation for the public welfare.
Statutes affected: Introduced: 8-50-1301(b), 8-50-1301
