Bill to limit developer responsibility for regional upgrades sent to summer study

Senator Reeves introduced SB1045, saying builders in his district reported being asked to pay for infrastructure that extends far beyond their subdivisions — bridges, road widening and regional traffic improvements — and the bill would create guardrails limiting developer obligations to project‑related infrastructure. "This bill provides clarity and guardrails around how infrastructure outside of developments are paid for and treated under Tennessee law," the sponsor said.
