Tenn. Code Ann. §48-51-101
—
Tennessee Nonprofit Corporation Act
The Tennessee Nonprofit Corporation Act (Title 48, Chapters 51-68) is the primary governance framework for HOAs incorporated as nonprofit corporations. Covers formation, board of directors and officers, meetings and voting, records, dissolution, and member rights. Since Tennessee has no comprehensive HOA-specific statute, this Act provides the default rules for HOA governance including meeting notice, quorum, proxy voting, director duties, and member inspection rights. HOA bylaws and declarations fill the gaps that the Nonprofit Corporation Act does not address.
