NACo Database of Sample Codes and Ordinances

The National Association of Counties (NACo) has created an online database of sample codes and ordinances that are listed by subject. This materials may be of interest to your county if you are considering a specific issue. Keep in mind that these are not tailored to Tennessee law. They may give you a starting place for drafting but should not be adopted "as is." A county commission interested in one of these samples should have the code or ordinance reviewed by the county attorney to see if there is authority in Tennessee law for a county to take such action and to determine whether the sample needs to be modified to conform to Tennessee law.
