One Year Ago Today, Country Music Lost the “Mayor of East Nashville” and One of Its Most Colorful Storytellers

Today (November 14) marks one year since beloved alt-country troubadour Todd Snider died from pneumonia and sepsis at a Nashville hospital. Just 59 years old, Snider never quite broke into the mainstream in the same way that peers such as Kris Kristofferson and John Prine managed to do. However, he left his mark nonetheless. Snider cultivated a dedicated following with his sardonic wit, storytelling prowess, and candid lyricism that often highlighted the plight of regular working-class people and his own struggles with addiction.

Nashville Dangles Buyouts for 2,400 Workers to Dodge Another Tax Hike

Nashville is offering longtime Metro government employees cash to walk away from their jobs early, a move city officials say could save roughly $10 million as they brace for what Mayor Freddie O’Connell has called one of the tightest budgets of his tenure. The voluntary retirement incentive, filed as legislation earlier this month, comes as Nashville residents continue to grapple with high property taxes that fund the bulk of city services.

David Crockett statue replaces Edward Carmack’s former spot on Tennessee’s Capitol Hill

There’s a new statue outside Tennessee’s capitol building, honoring one of the state’s most legendary native sons: David Crockett. It’s a little ironic, because at the end of his life, Crockett felt that he was essentially forced to leave the state. As a Congressman, he was vocally opposed to the Indian Removal Act championed by another Tennessean, President Andrew Jackson. That stance made him unelectable in Tennessee.

No. 576 Is Alive Again: Nashville’s Park Locomotive Steams for the Public

For generations of Nashville kids, the black steam engine parked in Centennial Park was a jungle gym, a photo backdrop and proof that the age of steam had once run right through town. It sat there for more than sixty years, cold and quiet, until a volunteer society took it away for a top-to-bottom rebuild.

Councilmember Horton wants Nashville renters alerted about new rezoning plans

Renters would be notified about rezoning plans near them under a new plan from Metro Councilmember Rollin Horton. Why it matters: The new legislation is the latest chapter in Horton's crusade against NIMBYism — the Not In My Backyard stance that thwarts multi-family housing projects. Currently, city officials are only required to notify property owners and landlords in close proximity to a proposed new development. Driving the news: Horton, who serves on the Planning Commission, wants to engage more residents about rezoning proposals. He says research shows renters are more likely to support additional housing options. Zoom in: He also believes his bill would simply increase civic engagement. The legislation requires renters of residential or commercial space within 1,000 feet of a rezoning plan to be notified. What he's saying: Horton tells Axios all Nashvillians deserve to know what's going on in their neighborhoods, but the current approach keeps some residents out of the loop. "To put it in perspective, if there were a rezoning proposal in your neighborhood today, an out-of-state corporate landlord would receive a notification about the proposed rezoning but a MNPS teacher renting an apartment or local boutique owner who leases her storefront would not be,"
