Nashville Council Rejects Winter Storm Fern Relief

Published 2 days, 2 hours ago
Description

Nashvilles Metro Council rejected a bill for water bill credits following Winter Storm Fern, with a sixteen to eighteen vote. The measure, proposed by Mayor Freddie OConnells team, aimed to credit customers between $7.93 and $25.51, pause service cutoffs, waive late fees, and set up six-month payment plans. Council members showed mixed reactions, with some preferring targeted aid over refunds for all. A fiscal breakdown revealed that while a small portion of customers saw usage spikes, the total bill for credits would have been nearly $5.99 million, leaving affected Nashvillians without direct relief.
