Mayor Barry's stormwater fee hike advances in Metro Council

Mayor Barry's stormwater fee hike advances in Metro Council
Joey Garrison , USA Today Network - Tennessee - The Metro Council voted unanimously by voice to advance a stormwater fee hike that is intended to address a backlog of $207 million in stormwater needs. The overhaul puts a greater financial burden on Nashville’s largest commercial and residential property owners than existing rates.

Barry’s proposal, which requires a third and final vote next month, would raise stormwater fees for 85 percent of Nashville’s homeowners and three out of every four businesses in town.
