Gentlemen and Ms. Huskin:
As you know, Loudon County, Tennessee, the City of
Lenoir City, and the City of Loudon are parties to an
Interlocal Government Agreement ("the Agreement")
Supporting the Loudon County Economic Development Agency
("EDA"). Section 8 of the Agreement states:
8. DURATION: This agreement shall continue from and
after the date hereof, except that by mutual agreement
of all of the parties hereto, this agreement may be
terminated at any time. In addition, after three years
from the date of the agreement’s execution, any party
to the agreement may in writing, at least two years
prior to a proposed withdrawal date established in the
notice, withdraw from the agreement. If only one
party elects to withdraw under the provisions of this
agreement, such party shall not be entitled to
reimbursement or distribution of the withdrawing party’s
share of any assets the Agency may have accumulated. If
two parties withdraw, dissolution shall proceed as
provided in section 9 therein. (emphasis added).
On June 26, 2023, the Loudon County Board of
Commissioners voted to withdraw from this Agreement in
two years. The withdrawal is effective as of August 1,
2025 (the "Proposed Withdrawal Date"). This letter is
your notice of the proposed withdrawal date.
Sincerely,
Henry Cullen
Chairman of the Loudon County
Board of Commissioners
