On behalf of the Local Government Practice Section, I want to thank you for your section membership and your support for what we do each year. Be sure to continue to stay connected with our section to get updates on the CLEs we will offer in 2025. In the event you missed our most recent Local Government Forum in November, you can still view the presentations in the TBA CLE Course Catalog. The forum provided four hours of credit and featured sessions on parliamentary procedures, 1st Amendment cases, local sustainability measures and the Tennessee Public Records Act. As you all know, government law is an ever-changing practice area with a unique blend of constitutional, statutory and case law. 
 
Aside from our annual forum, our section posts current news articles and information related to local government practice in our online eCommunity.  On the site, you can find a wealth of information, which currently includes over 1,700 relevant posts! We strive to bring you relevant content to keep you at the top of your practice. 
 
Thank you for your support of the TBA Local Government Practice Section. If you have a friend or colleague who might be interested in joining our section, please feel free to contact me or our TBA staff coordinator Jamie Rhode. If you have ideas or thoughts for our section, or if you are interested in getting more involved, please reach out to me.
