Bells Bend Area Councilman Flips His Flop

The Nashville Scene reported just this morning that Council Lonnell Mathews, Jr. had changed his support for the May Town Center to straight up opposition sending a letter to the Planning Commission to that effect. Now, Matthews has changed up again saying that he simply wants the plan deferred:

Reached for comment, Matthews softened on his stance and said that, because of lingering questions, his request is simply for a deferral.

Matthews said he wanted answers for where the necessary bridge over the Cumberland River would be located. He also wanted to know the cost of infrastructure for the project.

His new position is consistent with what master developer Tony Giarratana understood the councilman’s stance to be.
