Benton County - Subject to local approval, updates the system for the management of county finances, including, but not limited to, budgeting, investment oversight, debt management, and cash management oversight. - Amends Chapter 541 of the Private Acts of 1939; as amended and rewritten.

This Tennessee bill updates the financial management system for Benton County, affecting the county's legislative body, budget committee, and officials responsible for spending public funds. It establishes a five-member budget committee to prepare detailed annual budgets that include itemized spending plans, revenue estimates, and financial balance sheets, which must be made public for citizen review. While the committee provides recommendations, the final authority to adopt the budget and set tax rates remains with the County Legislative Body, which can modify line items within state guidelines. The legislation also defines key financial terms and outlines procedures for handling budget rejections, ensuring a structured approach to county fiscal oversight.
