Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating Nashville’s diverse faith communities at my 4th Annual Faith Leaders Walk! 🙏🏽

Big shout-out to our fantastic faith leaders, Chaplain Dahron Johnson, Rabbi Saul Strosberg, and Former Deputy Mayor Rev. Brenda Haywood!

Let’s keep opening doors to dialogue with our neighbors about each other's cultures and heritage! Speaking of local roots, I want to recognize and thank our amazing Council Member At-Large Burkley Allen, who taught us so much fun history about the Hillsboro Village area! 🌎🏛️

The 2026 qualifying income limits have increased for Davidson County’s Tax Relief and Tax Freeze programs, allowing more homeowners to qualify. The new limits are $38,470 for Tax Relief and $63,470 for Tax Freeze.

First-time applicants will be able to apply this fall at the Office of the Metropolitan Trustee, located at 700 President Ronald Reagan Way, Suite 220, Nashville, TN 37210. I will also host sign-up events across Davidson County throughout the program season to make enrollment more accessible.

Qualifying income will be based on 2025 income for residents listed on the deed and their spouses. Applicants will need to provide 2025 income documentation at that time.

When property tax statements are mailed this October, enrolled program members will receive their annual colored recertification paper to complete and return by the April 5, 2027 deadline.

The National Museum of African American Music was a 20-year labor of love - a project I fought to see through with excellence during my time as a council member.

Project Manager and I led a Spring Conference panel at the museum, where we discussed the infrastructure and capital challenges behind bringing NMAAM to completion in a way that reflected our voices, and rich history as a cultural asset to Black Nashville.

It was a wonderful day and a great chance to share Nashville’s Black music history, including the talent that came out of Jefferson Street and the Jubilee Singers’ role in putting “Music City” on the map.
