Highways, Roads and Bridges - As introduced, clarifies that the plans for an acquisition of a right-of-way by the state must be filed and recorded with the office of the register in each county where the project is located if the project is located in multiple counties. - Amends TCA Title 4; Title 54 and Title 55.
SB 373 requires the state to file and record final right-of-way acquisition plans with the register of deeds in *every* county where a highway project spans multiple counties. This applies to projects covered under Tennessee Code Sections 54-5-110 and related titles. The bill directly affects county recording offices, state transportation agencies, and property owners whose land may be acquired for such projects. It clarifies that multi-county projects must have separate filings in each affected county, rather than just one location.
