Imagine navigating daily life by walking, rolling, using public transit, or relying on rides from others. For nearly 1/3 of Americans, this is their reality. 🚫🚗

This Sunday, October 5th, join our Week Without Driving community ride.

Lime scooters and bikes will be available.

We hit the road 36 times last tax year, bringing Tax Relief & Freeze sign-ups directly to Davidson communities, and we’re right back with our first outreach of the 2025 tax season!

Great to see you, #Goodlettsville. Next stop, #TheNations, October 7th.

Celebrating 50 trips around the sun is a milestone in itself, but September carries double meaning for me. It’s both my birthday month and the anniversary of when I first took office as your Metropolitan Trustee. Truly a #GoldenBirthday, indeed 💙.

The office is always a little bit more joyful when Mr. Donovan Cotton is here.

This @vanderbilt.edu student and ‪@metroschools.bsky.social‬ grad returned to the Trustee’s Office for another internship.

Mr. Cotton I hope it will be filled with the same generosity of spirit you bring here.

Pastor Darryl M. Taliaferro, PhD helped bridge our staff's intergenerational communication — from Gen Z to Baby Boomers — drawing on his leadership from his days at Mt. Zion Baptist Church to mold our five generations of wisdom into one stronger office.
