Top issues during term (20)
Rivergate Mall redevelopment progress
A roughly 400,000-square-foot apartment project that will bring hundreds of new residents to the redeveloping mall site.
FY 2026-2027 budget amendment
Budget decisions will shape which park upgrades get funded next fiscal year.
Commercial space along Dickerson Pike may give way to townhomes
Losing the commercial pads could mean less tax revenue and fewer local services along the corridor.
Copper Valley development traffic and infrastructure mitigation
The district financing structure could shift some infrastructure costs for the development — details were not discussed publicly.
Youth athletics participation fee ordinance (26-1151)
Creates new fees for program participants, with higher fees for non-residents.
Event Venue Classification ordinance
Allen Farms density reduction and Allen Road improvements
The developer, not the city, is committed to funding the Allen Road widening and turn lane, though the city holds a separate bond until the turn lane is done.
Rivergate Mall redevelopment plan amendment
Over $29 million in public improvements are planned, but potential hotel tax revenue may end up outside city limits.
Beer permit applications for three local businesses
No direct cost to taxpayers; permit decisions affect the businesses' ability to sell alcohol.
Solid Waste Collection
Residents with unusually large debris could face a fee, but normal brush pickup stays free.
Goodlettsville Investment Act sales tax referendum
Would add a half penny per dollar to sales tax paid by shoppers in Goodlettsville if voters approve it.
Surplus property disposal
Sale proceeds could offset city costs; no amount was specified.
Moss-Wright Park traffic and pedestrian improvements
Funded largely through an LPRF state grant.
Dry Creek Commons incomplete improvements
The $125,000 bond stays in place another year rather than being drawn down or increased.
Data Center Development Moratorium
Could delay potential tax base from data center projects while the city studies regulations.
Municipal Code Title 17 amendment
It could open up a tiny new revenue stream from local business licenses for aspiring fortune-tellers.
Copper Valley Phase One completion
A $270,000 bond guarantees the city isn't left holding the bill if the developer doesn't finish the streetscape work.
Sewer rate increase
Residents will see a 2.3% sewer rate increase on their November water bills.
Road patching and TDOT permit delays
In-house patching is saving the city more than $100,000 versus contractor costs.
New state plan review deadlines drive 2027 calendar
Longer review windows mean slightly slower start-to-approval timelines for builders, but no direct cost to residents.
