Clarksville TN – Clarksville Mayor Kim McMillan announces the formation of the Access Management Ordinance Task Force as a result of a public meeting to discuss the proposal to revise Clarksville’s access ordinance.
“Part of what we discussed during the public meeting a couple of weeks ago is that as far back as 2001, at least two committees were formed to draft and review the first access management ordinance. A request was made that I create a similar group to review the revisions being proposed by the Street Department and to make recommendations to the Street Committee and the City Council,” said Mayor McMillan.
“While I expect they will begin with the work already done by the Street Department, I
am placing no restrictions on this Task Force as to their discussions or the language they ultimately propose.”
The Members of the Task Force are
- David B. Smith, who will serve as Chair
- Eddie Burchett
- Chris Cowan
- Jim Durrett
- Jack Frazier
- Dr. David Ripple
- David Shepard
- Richard Swift
- Vernon Weakley
“To the extent possible, I have asked the members of the original committees to serve on this Task Force. I appreciate their commitment to this project and for their willingness to, again, give of their time and energy. I look forward to hearing their ideas as we move forward to create an access management ordinance that addresses this complex issue,” said Mayor McMillan.
