Tennessee Growth Policy Act

Tennessee’s Growth Policy Act established a comprehensive growth policy for the state, part of which was a requirement to designate urban growth boundaries, planned growth areas, and rural areas based on projections of growth over a 20-year period.  These growth plans do not expire, and there is also no requirement to update them.
