Financing Electric-Municipal Buildings In Tennessee, Victor C. Hobday

MTAS History

The purpose of this publication is to advise municipal officials with respect to the sharing of a joint building by the general municipal government and an electric distribution system. It is an expansion of an article on the same subject that appeared in the Technical Section of the November 1952 issue of Tennessee Town & City magazine.

The information contained herein is oriented particularly toward officials responsible for the general government of Tennessee's municipalities, but it may also be of some value to officials of electric distribution systems.

Paving Streets Under The Abutting Property Act, Cliff Greenwood

MTAS History

To assist municipalities in constructing streets under the abutting property act, MTAS prepared the materials in this bulletin. In addition to a copy of the act itself, from Williams Tennessee Code, Annotated (Michie Publishing Company, Charlottesville, Virginia), there is included a sample ordinance and two sample notices. These are intended to be general guides, and each municipality should consult its attorney regarding the peculiar form of such documents adapted to its charter and needs.
