Tennessee SB0360 amends zoning laws to prevent the construction of correctional facilities, hospitals, and nursing homes in areas designated as one hundred-year flood plains. It also prohibits the relicensing of vacated facilities in these flood zones. Any new additions to existing facilities in these areas must ensure all access and functional components are built above the flood plain. The act takes effect July 1, 2025, and applies to all construction permit applications submitted after that date.
