Public Acts And The Legislative Process In Tennessee, Dennis Huffer

MTAS Publications: Full Publications

The purpose of this report is to inform city officials about the legislative process and how public acts are passed. Public acts which affect cities will affect all or almost all cities or a whole group of cities (such as all cities incorporated under the Uniform City Manager-Commission Charter). Private acts, which are legislative enactments generally affecting only one city or county and requiring local approval, are not considered here.
