Committee advances bill to allow OPEB board trustees to designate voting proxies
Summary
HB 22 08 would permit Tennessee OPEB board trustees to designate an individual to attend meetings and vote on their behalf, aligning the board's rules with other state boards. Committee advanced the bill (5 ayes, 1 present recorded).
Sponsor (S6) explained HB 22 08 as a Department of Treasury measure to authorize Tennessee OPEB board trustees to designate an individual to attend meetings and vote in their stead, bringing the OPEB board into alignment with other state boards. "This legislation authorizes the Tennessee OPEB board trustee members to designate an individual to attend a board meeting and vote on their behalf, aligning the board structure with other boards within the state," the sponsor said.
Committee members raised no objections and the clerk reported a vote of 5 ayes and 1 present (not voting); the chair announced the bill moves to full committee.
