Tennessee HB1702 mandates a study on emergency communications systems, focusing on funding models, operational structures, and consolidation.

Tennessee HB1702 requires the Tennessee Advisory Commission on Intergovernmental Relations (TACIR) to conduct a comprehensive study on emergency communications systems. The study must analyze current funding models, compare them with other states, and evaluate the benefits and disadvantages of different operating structures. It will also include an organizational chart of all emergency communications districts (ECDs) and assess the feasibility of consolidating these districts, particularly in rural areas.
