After the August County General Election, the Tennessee County Commissioners Association will once again be holding a series of regional meetings across the state. These meetings are one of the most important functions of the association. They are an excellent opportunity for county commissioners to meet, network over a meal and discuss issues impacting county government. The meetings also play an important part in formulating the association’s legislative platform for the next year. We invite state legislators and our congressional delegation to the meetings as well and it becomes an opportunity for county officials to express their views to these important governmental partners.
In order to allow participation by newly elected county commissioners, all meetings this year will be held after September 1 when the new term begins. The meetings begin promptly at 6:30 p.m. local time with a dinner, followed by programs and discussions and usually wrap up around 8:30. Two of our locations have changed this year. For the meeting in Putnam County, the Leslie Towne Center was not available and we will instead be meeting at the DelMonaco Winery in Baxter, Tennessee. Additionally, we are moving the Northern Middle Tennessee meeting that had been held on the Vol State Campus the last two years to the Robertson County Courthouse in Springfield. The dates for the meetings are listed below. Please mark your calendars and plan to join us for the meeting in your region.
September 7th UT AG Center, Jackson, Madison County
September 9th Henry Horton State Park, Marshall County
September 14th Mountain View Holiday Inn, Cleveland, Bradley County
