Williamson County - Subject to local approval, authorizes the board of the Williamson County hospital district to sell real property owned or operated by the hospital district and lease substantially all of the facilities owned or operated by the hospital district if approved by the Williamson County board of commissioners. - Amends Chapter 107 of the Private Acts of 1957; as amended.
HB 2646 amends the law to allow the Williamson County Hospital District board to sell real property or lease substantially all of its facilities, but only with prior approval from the Williamson County Board of Commissioners. This directly affects the hospital district’s asset management and requires county government consent for major transactions. The key mechanism explicitly mandates county approval for these actions, replacing outdated language with a clear statutory requirement. The bill updates the legal framework without altering the existing practice of needing county oversight.
