Summary
After the Comptroller’s presentation, committee members moved a resolution requesting county leaders adopt the report’s recommendations; the measure received a favorable committee recommendation (5–0) and will proceed to the full commission.
Committee 4 read a resolution asking Shelby County leaders to adopt the Tennessee Comptroller’s findings and recommendations following the report on the county justice system. The resolution was sponsored by Commissioner McWright and Commissioner David Bradford and formally moved by Commissioner Mills; Commissioner Caswell seconded the motion.
