Loudon - Subject to local approval, authorizes the City to regulate construction, maintenance, and operation of public utilities, and assess fees for the use and impact of such services; authorizes the City to establish, maintain, and regulate certain infrastructure, public grounds, and public facilities, assess fees for the use of or impact upon such property and facilities, and condemn property for such purposes in accordance with state law. - Amends Chapter 74 of the Private Acts of 1975; as amended.

HB 1426 would authorize Loudon City to regulate public utility construction, maintenance, and operations (like water or electricity services), and to assess fees based on the impact of those services. It also grants the city authority to manage public infrastructure (such as parks, streets, and facilities), charge fees for their use, and condemn property under state law for these purposes. The bill requires Loudon City's legislative body to approve it with a two-thirds vote before it takes effect. This directly affects Loudon residents and businesses using public utilities or city facilities, as it expands the city’s regulatory and fee-setting powers over these services. The bill amends existing state law governing Loudon City’s authority, as specified in Chapter 74 of Tennessee’s Private Acts.
