Nashville, TN looking to restructure & rebrand Metro Public Works into Department of Transportation

The Mayor of Nashville wants to address the lack of a local Department of Transportation by restructuring departmental responsibilities. The mayor submitted a Memorandum of Understanding to the Metro Council which proposes moving waste management duties from Metro Public works to Metro Water.
