List of Council Members Voting "Yes" on Kay Brooks

Here is a list of council members who voted "yes" on Tuesday for the Kay Brooks appointment to the vacant school board seat:

• Buck Dozier (buck.dozier@nashville.gov)
• Adam Dread (adam.dread@nashville.gov)
• Michael Craddock (michael.craddock@nashville.gov)
• Jason Hart (jason.hart@nashville.gov)
• Jim Forkum (jim.forkum@nashville.gov)
• Rip Ryman (rip.ryman@nashville.gov)
• Feller Brown (feller.brown@nashville.gov)
• Jim Gotto (jim.gotto@nashville.gov)
• Carl Burch (carl.burch@nashville.gov)
• Harold White (whw777@comcast.net)
• J.B. Loring (j.b.loring@nashville.gov)

• Randy Foster (randy.foster@nashville.gov)
• Jason Alexander (jason.alexander@nashville.gov)
• Parker Toler (parker.toler@nashville.gov)
• Charlie Tygard (charlie.tygard@nashville.gov)

Some of these are usual suspects on nose-thumbing our state's open meeting laws. If you feel as I do about this and your representative is on this list, I encourage you to contact him and ask: 1) How he reached his decision on Kay Brooks and 2) Whether he sought public imput on the matter before voting. I sent a letter to Ludye Wallace this morning and I'll keep you posted.
