Due to delays from the U.S. Census Bureau, Tennessee will not receive its 2020 county-level population data until September 2021. The statutory deadline to complete redistricting is January 1, 2022. As a result, counties may only have a few months to develop and finalize a new county commission district plan.
The Tennessee Comptroller’s Office serves as the state liaison to the U.S Census Bureau and partners with the County Technical Assistance Service to assist all 95 counties in completing redistricting.
