SB 1436 Tennessee Senate · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Henry County - Subject to local approval, authorizes the county commission to appoint a minimum of three and a maximum of seven members to the board of trustees for the Henry County Hospital District; reduces the frequency of regular meetings of the board of trustees from monthly to quarterly. - Amends Chapter 176 of the Private Acts of 1953; as amended.

SB 1436 changes the governance of Henry County Hospital District by requiring the Henry County Commission to appoint 3-7 trustees (including two county commissioners) instead of the previous structure. It establishes staggered four-year terms for trustees and allows the commission to recall trustees. The bill also reduces the frequency of board meetings from monthly to quarterly, requiring meetings at least once every three months. These changes directly affect the hospital district's board operations and county oversight.
