This bill establishes a minimum funding requirement for county mayors' offices in Tennessee, ensuring their annual budgets do not fall below the average of the previous five years. It specifically protects funding for personnel salaries, benefits, office supplies, and various administrative expenses unless the county mayor explicitly approves a reduction. By amending state law, the measure prevents county legislative bodies from automatically cutting these specific budget lines without the mayor's consent.
