The pro-property tax increase group that called itself a
“grassroots coalition” supporting key investments for Nashville’s future
received $26,000 from Mayor Karl Dean’s campaign coffers, his mid-year
financial disclosure reveals.
Moving Nashville Forward — which rallied support for the mayor’s
53-cent property tax hike in advance of the council’s final approval on
June 19 — collected donations from others as well, former Metro
Councilman Erik Cole, who led the organization’s efforts, told The City Paper. But the mayor’s contribution was the largest.
