Adult-Oriented Establishment Board

In counties that have adopted the Adult-Oriented Establishment Registration Act of 1998, codified at T.C.A. § 7-51-1101 et seq., by a two-thirds majority vote of the county legislative body, an adult-oriented establishment board must be established to administer the provisions of this law.  The board consists of five members, appointed by the county mayor, who serve for terms of four years. Board members serve without compensation but receive reimbursement for actual expenses for attending meeting of the board. T.C.A. § 7-51-1103.  More on Regulation of Adult-Oriented Entertainment and Massage can be found in County Powers/Regulatory Powers.
