First time in Metro Council history that an incumbent has not won the Mayoral election

Nashville has been the privi- lege of his lifetime, and he wishes John Cooper the best. Mayor Briley’s own transi- tion into office was not an easy one. Briley became mayor of Nashville following Megan Barry’s resignation, which was surrounded by the controversy of an affair and misuse of tax- payer money. “It was not an ideal environ- ment, you know, there's a lot of mistrust in local governments and the budget was not in the best situation,” says Hill. “The transit referendum was on the horizon and that was very divisive”.

Mayor Briley’s said in his speech Thursday night that he knows John Cooper has only Nashville’s best interests at mind.

Warner Parks Hummingbird Happy Hour was a fundraising Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness evening of art and jazz at Warner Park Nature Center. Bacon & Caviar provided a delicious cocktail buffet offering The Saint Paul mini tomato and cheese skewers, prosciutto wrapped melon, barbe- cue on rolls, and much more. A concert in the courtyard featured Annie Sellick and Pat Bergeson. Beautiful artwork by Lexie Armstrong was on display and available for purchase to add to the parks’ coffers. The event benefited Warner Parks Bird Information Research and Data (B.I.R.D.) Program. The Nature Center is one of a few places in the country where observers can watch bird banding in action. Bird research has been ongoing in Warner Parks since natural- ist Amelia Laskey began her bluebird nesting box program in 1936. Today, park staff and dedicated volunteers conduct 15 year-round bird research projects, extensive banding and bird counts, and take part in Project FeederWatch, a survey of winter bird populations across North America conducted by the Cornell Lab of Hummingbird: Heather and Ornithology and Bird Studies Canada.
