it’s remarkable how good we are at implementing limited-time fare suspension despite executive leadership’s ramblings to the contrary
is it time for new executive leadership that’s more in touch with the reality of modern transit operations?

certainly seems like a very big scandal if the chair has been trying to call a special meeting for weeks and the staff and CEO is obstructing that … i hope the @nashvillebanner.bsky.social will investigate
Power is quite different from ability. They have to comply with public meeting rules. They have to notice things and reserve space. They have to (often) coordinate with metro legal and IT. So when a staff really doesn’t want something, the authority’s chair has very little actual, practical power.

it’s very funny to see council members learn that maybe they should have spent more than 0.2 seconds thinking about the nominees for boards and commissions that they unanimously and uncritically approved
Calling all Metro nerds.
Say one is getting consistent pushback on a bus fare suspension, how might a council that doesn’t control the transit authority force policy? Statute setting for transit requirements? Can budget allocations be based on free fare?
Inquiring minds want creativity.

Over 3 years after seeking “community” approval, the Inspiritus project in Salemtown has topped out, a full floor shorter than it could’ve been
This building could be done and housing 95 low income Nashvillians, but we wasted time trying to placate the implacable, and lost 15 homes in the process

perhaps one day nashville will have an urban core
A Redditor made a graph of the percent of population of US and Canada metro areas over 1 million that live in a given density. When they ordered them by average density the lowest ranked Canadian metro area, Edmonton, was ranked 14th between Miami and Washington. 6 of the top 15 were Canadian metros
