Portland charter repeal requires local approval

The law deletes Section 11 of Article XII from Portland’s city charter and renumbers the remaining sections. The change takes effect only with approval by a two-thirds vote of Portland’s city legislative body. Its presiding officer must announce approval or rejection and certify the decision to Tennessee’s Secretary of State. The law takes effect immediately upon becoming law for the approval process only. The source does not explain what the deleted section covers, so its effects on residents are unknown.
