HB 1428 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Milan - Subject to local approval, requires the Board of Mayor and Aldermen to fill a vacancy declared for an office of Alderman within 60 days of such vacancy; authorizes the mayor to make temporary appointments to the office of city attorney or city judge in cases of sickness, absence, or other temporary disability; makes other changes to the city charter. - Amends Chapter 7 of the Private Acts of 1999; as amended.

HB 1428 amends Milan's city charter to extend the deadline for filling vacant alderman positions from 30 to 60 days after a vacancy is declared. It also authorizes the mayor to make temporary appointments to the city attorney or city judge roles during sickness, absence, or other temporary disability, pending board confirmation. These changes apply solely to Milan's local government structure and do not affect other cities or state-level policies. The bill focuses on procedural updates to the city charter rather than new policy initiatives.
