Nobody will remember:
- your salary
- how “busy you were”
- how many hours you worked

Your Water Reclamation Facility will remember:
- if you flush "flushable" wipes

Since I did this illustration of @freddieoconnell for November’s transition policy briefings, I thought now might be a good time to update it.

August is #BlackBusinessMonth, Shout out to @slimandhuskys in North Nashville! @AlexApple_ and our summer intern @AmeliaF92460367 grabbed a delicious pizza lunch yesterday to kick things off!

[Julie Oaks Smith @jujusmith]

Look who I ran into on the @WeGoTransit 14 bus. 😉 Excited to join @freddieoconnell as we open Nashville’s 300th shelter and sign the #ChooseHowYouMove Program! #transit 🚍🚦🚶‍♀️🚘

Nashville moved another key housing tool into place today: The opening of the city’s #ARPA funded permanent supportive housing apartments at Strobel House. Thanks for the investment in Nashville, @WhiteHouse! #HousingFirst @OHSNashville

[Freddie O’Connell @freddieoconnell]

Today we cut the ribbon on Strobel House.

Named for Father Charles “Charlie” Strobel—our “worthless servant”—this is Metro’s first public permanent supportive housing facility, intended for Nashvillians at greatest risk for chronic homelessness.

It took years, but we made it.

TRAFFIC ADVISORY: To help ensure motorist safety during tonight's Let Freedom Sing downtown fireworks display, the interstate loop on the east side of downtown will close for about an hour beginning at approximately 9 p.m.

Special guest at the #ChooseHowYouMove bus at #EarthDay2024 in Centennial Park, @freddieoconnell!

[Julie Oaks Smith @jujusmith]

Transit is free all day today so taking the @WeGoTransit #3 to #EarthDay2024 in Centennial Park to talk transportation with my Nashville neighbors. Would love a sidewalk/shelter here in Bellevue! #ChooseHowYouMove

[Julie Oaks Smith @jujusmith]

@nkornutick It is also true that sometimes there are empty lanes on the roadway and yet we keep widening them to accommodate peak traffic. 🤔
