Effective immediately upon its signing Mar. 17 [1995] by Gov. Sundquist, a new law made two significant changes in the uniform city manager-commission charter.

1. The first change reduced the number of required readings of an ordinance from three to two.

2. The second change deleted the provision that all powers enumerated under the charter had to be performed by ordinance.

The rest of the charter changes made by this new law were predominately housekeeping.
