Redistricting, Legislative - As enacted, adds that geographic descriptions affecting part of the boundary line between Fayette County and Shelby County are to be construed as the boundary line when census descriptions, counties, voting districts (VTDs), tracts, blocks, census delineations, census district lines, and other census designations are those established for or by the United States department of commerce, bureau of the census, for taking the 2020 federal decennial census in this state as contained in the topologically integrated geographic encoding and referencing system for the composition of state congressional districts, state senatorial districts, and state house of representative districts. - Amends TCA Title 2, Chapter 16 and Title 3, Chapter 1.
HB 166 requires Tennessee's Office of Legislative Information Systems to archive the House Select Committee on Redistricting's webpage from the 112th General Assembly. It mandates preserving all videos, documents, maps, and other materials on that webpage to remain functional and publicly accessible. This procedural bill directly affects the public by ensuring historical redistricting records remain available for review. The law amends Tennessee Code Annotated Sections 3-1-103(f) and takes effect upon enactment.
