- MAYOR'S MESSAGE -

June 11, 2002

The Honorable Howard Gentry, Jr.
Vice Mayor Pro Tem
102 Metropolitan Courthouse
Nashville TN 37201

Dear Vice Mayor Pro Tem Gentry:

The Metro Council has a long standing and continuing commitment to children. A particular focus for the Council has been on the provision of after-school programs and care.

I applaud this interest and commitment. It reflects my own in public and private life, as mayor, public policy advocate, legislator, lawyer and father.

We also share an understanding of the obligations of public service - to uphold our responsibilities and avoid the appearance of conflicts of interest.

It is in this context that I must consider executive action on RS2002-1054. This Resolution came to my desk following Council action on June 4, 2002. I am advised that the document attached to and referenced in the Resolution is not the original contract or an exact facsimile thereof. Additionally, additions made to the original contract insert the Mayor by name. While the intent and purpose are worthy, and our laws and rules upheld, the process has resulted in changes which could create the appearance of a conflict of interest.

I respect the separate role and function of the Council and hope never to impede the good works of the Council, most especially where they are for the good of our children. Unfortunately, the only means available to me to avoid such an appearance is by exercise of my power of veto. In this case, my purpose and actions are, I believe, clear and my motivations certain. For these reasons I am returning RS2002-1054 with my veto.

Sincerely,

/s/ Bill Purcell
Mayor


Mr. Shulman moved to sustain the mayoral veto, which motion was seconded and adopted by a voice vote of the Council.
