- MAYOR’S MESSAGE –
Honorable Ronnie Steine, Vice Mayor
Metropolitan Council
Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County
Nashville Tennessee 37201
Dear Vice Mayor Steine and Members of the Metropolitan Council:
As required under our Metropolitan Charter, I am today submitting a balanced budget for consideration by the Metropolitan Council. The budget we have filed totals $1.111 billion dollars, an increase of just 1.54 percent over this fiscal year.
The budget by its terms should define both the needs and priorities of this city. Our priorities and therefore our budget objectives are:
The budget I present to you today accomplishes these goals. It is balanced and is fully funded without a tax increase.
This budget protects the mission of our schools and our classrooms. The problems of the past are addressed as reserves are repaid and pensions funded, the needs of teachers and the school improvement plan are fulfilled.
$12 million will be added to the education budget to meet the commitments of our schools. An additional $4.7 million in resources have been identified for education and with your help can be made available.
Police and fire classes are funded in this budget to insure we can protect Nashvillians in the years ahead.
Funding for our libraries, now undergoing a massive expansion across the city, will increase by 25 percent in this budget in order to staff and maintain our new facilities.
In addition, $1 million will be put into our efforts to reduce the gap of decent, safe and affordable housing in Davidson County.
I look forward to your careful consideration of this budget. Our Finance Director David Manning, and my staff are ready to assist you in your review.
Sincerely,
/s/ Bill Purcell
Mayor
