Metro Mayor Plans Series Of Town Halls

NASHVILLE, TN -- Metro Nashville Mayor David Briley will hold a series of town hall meetings throughout Davidson County, beginning April 19 at Maplewood High School.

“We are embarking together on a new season for Nashville and Metro Government,” Briley said in a release. “We are becoming more service-oriented than ever before, especially as new methods of communicating with Nashvillians are coming into play. But sometimes, old school methods are what we need, and these listening sessions will help Metro to learn about the public’s priorities and concerns face to face. I look forward to meeting with residents throughout Davidson County.”

Information from hubNashville, Metro’s customer service platform, and a recent resident survey will guide the mayor's priorities and discussions with Metro departments and agencies, his office said. The meetings are designed to supplement this data, providing a wider range of viewpoints from individuals who may not be directly interacting with Metro.

Briley has invited Metro Councilmembers, school board members and representatives from Metro departments to part of the events.

Residents are asked to RSVP for planning purposes.

The full schedule is:

• Thursday, April 19 at 6:30 p.m. Maplewood High School
• Tuesday, April 24 at 6:30 p.m. Southeast Community Center
