SPRING HILL WARD MAP

SPRING HILL MAYOR

JIM HAGAMAN

1. Why are you running for this position?

To continue to represent and serve our citizens FIRST!

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

When I ran for Mayor 4 years ago, one of my campaign platforms was to change the trajectory of the irresponsible growth that had been going on for several years. Under my leadership, that trajectory has changed. I will continue to champion for intelligent growth, aided by our UDC, staff, and citizens that I serve.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

Lack of infrastructure is a top challenge. There are solutions I have been working on that are in the pipeline. The options for solutions take representation and buy in from many stake holders. I will continue to team up with all stake holders.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

We have an opportunity to build a hospital; to construct another outdoor park and recreation area; to create an airport; and to build a new library. All of these opportunities serve our city positively. I have supported them and will continue to do so.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

To continue to partner with MCCEA, Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce, our county Mayor, our state elected officials, and our citizens.

6. Spring Hill is located in one of the fastest growing areas in the state and country. This tremendous growth will require new and improved infrastructure (i.e., schools, roads, water, etc.). How do you plan to provide these infrastructure improvements, including any required funding?

The long summed up answer is: It is not a good thing to brag and say “…we are one of the fastest growing…” What I want to be known for is: “We are one of the most responsible growing areas in the state and country.” To attain this posture, takes numerous people in influential roles that are WILLING to make it a reality. I am one of those people.

SPRING HILL MAYOR

JIM HAGAMAN

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Following the UDC. Do not contribute to the issues we already have. I will not say “yes” to any rezone that would give vested rights to a development that would not benefit citizens FIRST.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

I am a Mayor 24/7! I have an open-door policy. You can call me, text me, email me, or we can meet anytime our schedules align. Meeting face to face is my preference.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

A term where I am remembered for integrity, for serving my citizens FIRST, and God saying “Well done good and faithful servant”.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

We are already partners. We will continue to develop our partnership to attain our mutual goals which is to serve our businesses and our citizens.

SPRING HILL MAYOR MATT FITTERER

1. Why are you running for this position?

I love Spring Hill. I’m running for Mayor because I believe in our City and its future. We have an incredible opportunity to seize upon our potential and deliver results that benefit the entire community. As our City has grown in size, it has also grown in complexity. Spring Hill needs leadership that understands our challenges and how effective local government works. Spring Hill needs leadership, which has the relationships, skills and ability to deliver results. I’m running for Mayor because I’m ready to see Spring Hill thrive.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I have served Spring Hill for ten years as Alderman. During that time, I’ve served continually on the Planning Commission, was Chair of the Transportation Advisory Committee, and currently am Chair of the Budget and Finance Advisory Committee. My decade of service has given me a comprehensive understanding of our most pressing issues; planning, transportation and fiscal oversight. I have served on task forces for the donation and transfer of Rippa Villa to the City as well as the writing of the Unified Development Code. I know how local government works, as I have authored close to 60 pieces of legislation. I’ve focused tax dollars on key infrastructure projects and ensured that new developments make significant financial contributions to our community needs.

All these achievements required building consensus amongst my fellow board members and external stakeholders. I have the existing relationships needed to lead. I’ve demonstrated that I’m an effective leader who can get things done. I have a very deep understanding of Spring Hill’s challenges and opportunities.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

All of the largest challenges facing Spring Hill are items that will be solved in partnership with others. Whether it’s improvements to I-65 and Hwy 31, the advanced water purification project, or delivering upon our major economic opportunities – all of those victories are going to come through regional and state level partnerships and working collaboratively with private industry. The top issue that Spring Hill’s next Mayor must solve is ensuring that our City is well represented in these partnerships. Spring Hill citizens deserve a Mayor who will put in the hard work developing relationships and rapport with other stakeholders so that we can solve problems together.

Our Mayor must attend GNRC Policy Board meetings. Our Mayor must work synergistically with county leaders and state elected officials. Our Mayor must have working relationships with small business owners and economic partners. Our Mayor must be able to communicate effectively across all these relationships and make certain that Spring Hill’s interests are well represented.

SPRING HILL MAYOR MATT FITTERER

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Completion of the advanced water purification (Project SWIFT) is the top opportunity for Spring Hill over the next four years. Identifying a utility project as a top opportunity is a bit unordinary, however this is a potential generational solution to Spring Hill’s wet utility capacity needs. Not only that, but we’re also talking about a program that can fundamentally change the way TDEC views opportunities across Tennessee. SWIFT stands for Strategic Water Infrastructure For Tennessee –this isn’t just a Spring Hill project. Spring Hill has an opportunity to be the leader in the state when it comes to advanced water purification and long-term utility capacity solutions.

From a more traditional economic development opportunity perspective, Spring Hill is in a unique situation in that we have multiple projects that can generate significant job creation and economic growth. June Lake, Legacy Pointe and the Spring Hill Commerce Center are each poised to deliver significant high paying employment opportunities and greatly diversify the City’s nonproperty tax revenue base. It will be critical over the next four years that we have a Mayor in place who can partner with these projects, TNECD, Maury Alliance and Williamson Inc. to deliver on their potential. Any City in Tennessee would be ecstatic to have the potential of just one of these projects. Spring Hill has three and our leaders must deliver on them.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

Building relationships with other municipalities and the County starts with availability and communication. We can find areas of common ground and work cooperatively to advance shared interests.

The proposed Cumberland water transmission line is a great opportunity for all of Maury County to work together. Today we are all dependent upon the Duck River for safe, clean drinking water. If we work together, we have an opportunity to deliver decades worth of safe, clean drinking water to all of Maury County without further stressing the Duck River.

Job creation and economic growth in one part of the county similarly lifts everyone together. Spring Hill’s large economic projects can keep jobs and sales tax dollars inside the county, which in turn funds our public school system. As Spring Hill worked with the County the past few years on TIF approvals, we were certain to only bring forward projects that would be a win for the entire County and support educational funding.

SPRING HILL MAYOR MATT FITTERER

Spring Hill’s largest infrastructure challenges are not projects that the City can tackle by itself. Interstate 65 and Hwy 31 improvements will have to be in partnership with the GNRC and TDOT. It’s critical to Spring Hill’s success that we have a Mayor who will invest in relationships with our regional and state partners. Our Mayor has to attend GNRC meetings. The Spring Hill Mayor must have strong relationships and trust with our county Mayors, other municipal Mayors and state elected leaders as well.

Likewise, our greatest utility infrastructure challenges are also going to be solved as part of regional solutions and in partnership with others. TDEC, DRA, CPWS relationships are critical to the success of the advance water purification project and the Cumberland River water transmission line.

Spring Hill has always partnered with both Maury and Williamson County when it comes to building public school facilities. We’ve expedited the Planning Commission approval process, waived fees and done what we can to help schools open on time. We’ll continue to do so.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill is continuing to diversify our economic base while still supporting GM’s presence to build a more resilient economy. We will engage with small businesses to add local character and charm. Spring Hill will continue to invest in capital infrastructure needs. Currently 80% of the Spring Hill budget goes towards roads, public safety and utilities – we’ll continue to make those investments. I was part of the team that was able to secure and permanently protect Rippa Villa as a public property. We’re partnering with the Battle of Franklin Trust to regain additional battlefield land and will take advantage of other opportunities in the future as well to protect and preserve historic properties. We will protect the Duck River and our other natural resources as we complete our long-range utility projects. Adding commercial office space will reduce commuter traffic and provide fiscal stability as well.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

I have made accessibility and communication a cornerstone of my public service. I write and send a monthly newsletter that 7,200 people subscribe to (you can sign up here: https://rebrand. ly/9v0d60h). I am well known for regularly posting updates and City news to my social media accounts. If you Google my name, my cell phone number will appear as a top result. That’s by design and on purpose. I very intentionally ensure that I am not just available but proactively communicate with everyone in Spring Hill as well.

SPRING HILL MAYOR MATT FITTERER

Citizens deserve to hear from their elected representatives on a regular basis and not just during campaigns for office. I will continue to look for new ways to reach a larger audience and ensure that I’m communicating in a way that is beneficial to citizens. Spring Hill also needs to return to previous practices when it comes to public comment at our Board of Mayor and Aldermen meetings. Prior to 2021, citizens were afforded 5 minutes to speak, and a second opportunity was available at the end of meetings for anyone who sat through the meeting. In 2021 the time limit was reduced to 4 minutes (20% reduction) and the second opportunity was removed. When I’m Mayor, we’ll go back to the pre-2021 rules. If you take the time to come down to City Hall to speak to your elected representatives, I’m going to make sure you have ample speaking time.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

A successful Mayoral term would simply be making progress on the challenges facing Spring Hill. There is no finish line for the City and the City will never run out of challenges or needs. The goal for any public servant should be to make progress, improve the quality of life in their community and move the ball forward. We’re stewards of the community; we’re caretakers of the office. It’s our job to make progress and leave both the City and the office in a better position than when we began.

Specific to the next four years, success will be improving our relationships with state, regional and private partners, and making progress on our various infrastructure needs while improving citizens quality of life.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

Spring Hill has never held strategic planning sessions with either Chamber. Identifying where there is overlap between Spring Hill’s long-range goals and the long-range goals of both organizations needs to occur so that we all can identify common areas of interest. We can create a common economic development vision that will benefit both Spring Hill and larger Maury County. As I mentioned earlier, Spring Hill has unparalleled economic opportunities in June Lake, Legacy Pointe and the Spring Hill Commerce Center. We have to work cooperatively with the Spring Hill Chamber, Maury Alliance, Williamson Inc and TNECD if we want to see those projects fulfill their potential. Each has the potential to substantially improve Maury Co as an even better place to live and work.

Spring Hill, Maury Alliance and the Spring Hill Chamber should all strive to present a united front when it comes to business recruitment and promoting our region. Sharing data and market research across organizations can help us all leverage knowledge into wins for citizens and our business community.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Spring Hill has significant opportunities for economic growth, particularly east of I-65 and with the planned U.S. Tennis Association facility. I plan to capitalize on these developments to boost tourism and expand our commercial tax base, enhancing our local economy.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

Collaboration is key. I plan to engage in regular meetings with other municipal leaders and their teams to foster strategies that serve the best interests of both counties, ensuring our collective decisions enhance community welfare.

Infrastructure improvements are vital, and these will require strategic planning and funding. As Mayor, I will advocate for infrastructure projects while prioritizing our budget effectively. Members of BOMA will need to be courageous, and transparent with voters about the financial necessities of these improvements.

SPRING HILL MAYOR

RICK J. MCCREADIE

1. Why are you running for this position?

Running for mayor of Spring Hill, Tennessee, presents an opportunity to address several pressing issues and guide the city toward a prosperous future. My key reasons to consider my candidacy include:

1. Infrastructure and Traffic Management: Spring Hill has experienced rapid growth, leading to significant traffic congestion, particularly along major routes like U.S. Highway 31. Residents have expressed concerns about prolonged commute times and inadequate road infrastructure. Addressing these challenges by improving roadways and traffic flow is essential to enhance daily life for citizens.

2. Public Safety Enhancements: Recent incidents, including pedestrian accidents and concerns over street safety, highlight the need for improved public safety measures. Implementing better crosswalks, traffic calming devices, and community policing initiatives can help ensure a safer environment for all residents. I am spearheading a nonprofit Walk Bike Spring Hill chapter.

3. Sustainable Urban Planning: The city’s expansion has led to challenges in maintaining its rural charm while accommodating new developments. Promoting sustainable urban planning practices can help balance growth with the preservation of natural and cultural resources, ensuring that development enhances rather than detracts from the community’s character.

4. Economic Diversification and Support for Local Businesses: While Spring Hill has a strong manufacturing base, diversifying the local economy can provide resilience against economic downturns. Supporting small businesses and attracting a variety of industries can create job opportunities and strengthen the city’s economic foundation.

5. Community Engagement and Transparency: Fostering open communication between the city’s administration and its resident’s is crucial. Encouraging community involvement in decision-making processes and ensuring transparency can build trust and create a more inclusive governance model.

6. By focusing on these areas, as mayor, I can address current challenges and lead Spring Hill toward a future

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 1

TERI MAI

1. Why are you running for this position?

I want to serve my community.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I have served on several Boards of Directors in the past and understand how Boards work. I am willing to work hard, research issues, seek experts’ opinions when necessary, listen to new ideas, consider opinions of others, treat others with respect and dignity and I work well with others.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

I believe managing the rapid growth of our small town is probably the biggest challenge BOMA is and will deal with. I will work to balance the competing interests of population growth and increasing our tax basis with the goal of improving the quality of life for all residents while managing and protecting our history and our environment.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

I believe that the rapid growth we are seeing is probably the greatest opportunity to expand and improve the quality of life for our city, if we manage it wisely.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

I believe open communication and respect are the best ways to work with anyone. Additionally, since Spring Hill is located in both Maury County and Williamson County, I believe we have the opportunity and responsibility to work with both counties to ensure the best interests of all residents of Spring Hill in both counties are being respected.

I plan to work with the various Federal, State and local governments and agencies, private-public partnerships, as well as local businesses and developers to coordinate funding and planning for the necessary new and improved infrastructure.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Thoughtful and sustainable growth looks like improved roads to reduce traffic congestion (especially during peak hours), planned residential, business, retail and recreational centers, schools, parks, greenspaces and other community amenities so that Spring Hill is not only a great place to live, but also a great place to visit.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

Probably the best ways to communicate with the most people is via email and social media; however, I am certain I can make myself available by phone and text, as well as in person before and after BOMA meetings and individually as necessary by appointment.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 1

ALEX JIMENEZ

1. Why are you running for this position?

I am running for Alderman because I am deeply invested in the growth and future of Spring Hill. This is the community my family calls home, and it is where I want my children to grow up and always feel proud to return. To ensure that Spring Hill remains a desirable place for current and future generations, we must prioritize creating a balanced community—one that offers opportunities for growth, vibrant entertainment options, a strong and reliable infrastructure, a focus on safety, and a wholesome quality of life. I am committed to being a voice for the community to help guide Spring Hill in the right direction as we continue to grow.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I bring a unique combination of leadership, business experience, and community involvement that makes me an ideal candidate for Alderman. As a local business owner, I have developed the skills necessary to manage operations, budgets, and teams effectively, making the practical aspects of leadership second nature to me. Additionally, my role as Commissioner of Bethesda Softball and President of a nonprofit organization has deepened my understanding of how to bring people together to achieve common goals.

However, my most valuable assets are my communication skills and my ability to connect with people. Building strong relationships is a cornerstone of effective governance, and I believe my approachable nature and dedication to listening to the needs of others will help with collaboration and trust within our community. These experiences and qualities uniquely position me to serve Spring Hill as we navigate growth and progress.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

One of the most visible challenges for Spring Hill is infrastructure, and as residents, we all recognize its impact on our daily lives. However, the root of this issue lies in deeper problems that must be identified and addressed. These include gaps in planning, accountability, and the lack of proactive solutions to meet the demands of a rapidly growing community.

To address these challenges, we need a renewed focus on identifying deficiencies, demanding accountability, and motivating individuals to work collaboratively toward shared goals. Too often, progress is stalled because of a lack of urgency or a passive mindset. My plan is to energize and align people around actionable solutions, ensuring that projects move forward efficiently and effectively. If overcoming obstacles and working together isn’t part of someone’s approach, then it’s time to make room for leaders who are ready to take action. I’m committed to being that leader for Spring Hill.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 1

ALEX JIMENEZ

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Spring Hill is a community filled with untapped potential, and I see tremendous opportunities for growth and improvement. Our location provides a unique advantage for attracting businesses, creating job opportunities, and economic development while maintaining the small-town charm that makes Spring Hill special. Additionally, we have an opportunity to invest in thoughtful infrastructure planning that not only meets current demands but also supports long-term growth.

Another significant opportunity lies in strengthening our sense of community by creating more spaces and events that bring people together. By supporting local businesses, expanding recreational opportunities, and enhancing public amenities, we can make Spring Hill an even more desirable place to live, work, and raise a family.

I plan to utilize these opportunities by actively listening to the needs of residents and working with other leaders to implement strategic initiatives that benefit everyone. Collaboration and forward-thinking will be key to ensuring that Spring Hill continues to thrive while maintaining its identity as a community that values quality of life for all.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

Spring Hill’s unique position as a city divided between two counties presents both challenges and opportunities. While this split may require extra effort, it also provides double the potential for collaboration and growth. Each municipality plays a critical role in shaping the future of our community, and it’s essential to foster relationships built on mutual respect and shared goals rather than creating unnecessary competition or animosity.

To ensure decisions are in the best interest of Maury County / Williamson County as a whole, I plan to prioritize open communication and transparency between municipalities. By actively listening to all perspectives and recognizing the value each entity brings to the table, we can build a foundation of trust and teamwork. Ultimately, we are all working toward the same goal: a thriving community. To achieve that, we must be willing to see both sides of the coin and pursue solutions that benefit the broader community, not just those that align with individual beliefs or agendas.

Growth on the scale Spring Hill is experiencing requires significant investment in infrastructure,

including schools, roads, water systems, and other essential services. While it’s easy to default to the idea of increasing taxes to meet these demands, I believe this should be a last-resort solution. Our residents are already feeling the strain of rising costs, from insurance to everyday expenses, and adding to that burden is not the right approach.

Instead, we need to explore creative and proactive ways to generate funding and address deficiencies. In my nonprofit work, I’ve proven my ability to successfully raise funds and bring people together around a common goal. I believe that same approach—leveraging partnerships, securing grants, and pursuing public-private collaborations—can provide the resources we need without further burdening our residents.

This issue is complex and will require collaboration, research, and understanding of the “dos and don’ts” regarding funding sources and regulations. However, one thing is clear: it’s time to shift the focus from placing the responsibility solely on the shoulders of our community to finding innovative and fair solutions that meet our growing needs. Our residents should not have to pay for deficiencies they didn’t create.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill means planning for the future, not just addressing the immediate needs of today. It’s like buying shoes for a growing child—you wouldn’t buy something that fits perfectly now, knowing it will soon be outgrown. Similarly, we must approach growth with foresight and intentionality, ensuring that the decisions we make today can accommodate the needs of tomorrow.

Quick fixes and “good enough for now” solutions often result in long-term financial waste and inefficiency. While it’s important to address immediate challenges, we must do so with a larger vision in mind—one that anticipates and plans for continued growth. Thoughtful growth means building infrastructure, systems, and services that not only sustain what we currently have but also position us for future success. By prioritizing strategic planning and a long-term perspective, we can create a Spring Hill that is prepared to thrive well into the future.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

Effective communication starts with understanding how people prefer to receive information. Some constituents may prefer phone calls, others emails, and many value in-person conversations. Recognizing and respecting these preferences is just as important as remembering someone’s name—it’s about showing people that their voices matter and that you value their input.

As Alderman, I plan to maintain open and accessible communication channels by utilizing multiple platforms, including phone, email, social media, and in-person meetings. Whether it’s attending

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 1

ALEX JIMENEZ

community events or simply making myself available for one-on-one conversations, my goal is to ensure that every resident has the opportunity to connect and share their thoughts in a way that works best for them. By meeting people where they are, we can create stronger relationships and ensure that the concerns and ideas of our community are heard and addressed.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

Defining a successful term is challenging because, as Mike Tyson famously said, “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.” Plans will inevitably face challenges, but success is about adaptability, resilience, and forward progress.

For me, a successful term is marked by measurable progress, constructive feedback, and a clear sense of direction for our community. It’s about earning the trust and support of the residents, ideally culminating in a re-election based on the positive impact of my efforts. Success also looks like laying the foundation for long-term growth—like the brushstrokes of a masterpiece, each decision contributes to a bigger picture that cannot be completed in a single term.

While I know I cannot accomplish everything in one or even multiple terms, my focus will be on setting Spring Hill on the right course, with a clear destination in sight. Success is not just about achieving immediate results but ensuring the community is aligned for sustainable growth and a brighter future.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

Partnerships are at the heart of driving meaningful change, and both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and the Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce play pivotal roles in making our community the best place to live and work. The Spring Hill Chamber, in particular, stands out as one of the most powerful and impactful chambers I have encountered in my career. It’s home to many of our community’s top leaders—leaders who are instrumental in driving growth and success. These are the people we need to engage with, as they will be a vital catalyst for our community’s continued prosperity.

The Chamber also represents many of our small business owners—individuals and families who have chosen Spring Hill as the place to build and grow their livelihoods. These businesses are the backbone of our community, and as a leader, I will prioritize supporting them, ensuring they have the resources, partnerships, and opportunities to thrive. While larger companies and organizations are important, leadership must remain focused on the core of our community—the small businesses, entrepreneurs, and families that give Spring Hill its unique identity. By working closely with both chambers, we can ensure that all sectors of our community have a voice and a seat at the table, driving progress and growth for everyone.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

GREG GRONINGER

1. Why are you running for this position?

Spring Hill has been my home for fifteen years. My wife and I moved here from Franklin to raise our family in a charming farm community. In that time, the unrestricted growth has caused bedlam. While giving short-term enjoyment, this development explosion has long-term consequences. We are now feeling and will feel the effects of decisions made in the past ten years. I want to guide BOMA and the city towards responsible growth. We cannot continue to approve of major development without bolstering the city’s infrastructure.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I have been a practicing attorney for twenty years. I have experience in representing homeowners’ associations and condominium owners’ associations dealing with the same growth Spring Hill faces today. As an HOA attorney, I had multiple interactions with municipality governing bodies over two decades. I have seen what succeeds and what fails. I have experience with building a community beneficial to all its residents. I have represented large HOAs (40,000 plus residents) and small HOAs (6 houses) and am well versed in different approaches that accomplish specific goals for a community. A large part of this practice was litigating warranty claims against residential and commercial developers during the housing boom of the mid 2000’s.

City governance falls into three categories: documentation, financial responsibility, and physical infrastructure. I have experience in coordinating the tension and competing objectives in all three areas.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

There are two distinct challenges facing Spring Hill:

1. The city is attractive on a national scale due to our community values, our citizens, our legacy, and our land. This attraction is what causes a massive influx of new residents. We must work hard to preserve and conserve our values while realizing that these values will continue to attract citizens with the same or similar values. We will, as a city, need to balance holding on to what makes us great and welcoming those who want the same.

2. The city development is playing catch up. New fire stations, new police stations, and even water and sewer infrastructure continually fall behind even after major upgrades. The unbalanced development of residential land is causing bedlam on the city. The infrastructure not only needs to catch up, but new construction and upgrades must be future proofed to avoid being rapidly outdated.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

GREG GRONINGER

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

The top opportunity for Spring Hill is a new library. The current library draws visitors from across the state, not just Williamson and Maury County and not just from Middle Tennessee. Visitors to the library also drive the financial revenue of the city by visiting local businesses. Creating a stateof-the-art library will enrich not only the community but local business owners as well.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

Spring Hill is a unique city in that it spans both two counties and is surrounded by both small and large communities. While establishing itself as a central hub for residents and businesses, I will collaborate with surrounding communities to support the larger plan of Middle Tennessee. The different functions of the city establish different relationships with each municipality. For example, we need to partner with Columbia, Fairview, College Grove, and both counties on water preservation. Thompsons Station relies on us for police and fire protection.

When it comes to funding infrastructure, taxes on citizens is the least desirable method. Each infrastructure improvement presents unique revenue opportunities. A new library may have the city partner with private donors and businesses through fund raising. New roads can be funded through the state and federal department of transportation grants. Water and sewer improvements likewise can be funded through grants, partnerships and strategic planning.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

The key to thoughtful and sustainable growth is a solid foundation with a well-communicated vision. We must know where we are going. We do not want a bedroom community. We do not want rapidly slapped down subdivisions and apartment complexes that feel separate and distinct from the rest of the city. We must build a foundation for this long-term project and keep in our minds both where we are going and from where we came.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

I plan to have an active social media presence across multiple platforms. At the same time, the best way to communicate is and always has been in person. I plan to visit HOA meetings and provide city updates for an opportunity for live questions and to hear current concerns.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

GREG GRONINGER

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

A successful term would be a budget surplus, moving Route 31 improvements on TDOT’s timetable, and approval of a new library site with approved plans. I also want to see that our city is moving toward responsible growth while holding onto its values.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

The Chamber of Commerce is full of business owners who work and live here. By listening to their concerns and supporting small businesses, I identify the common thread that unites citizens and establish solutions for all.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

JAIMEE DAVIS

1. Why are you running for this position?

First and foremost, I am a dedicated mother who moved to Spring Hill 15 years ago, seeking a vibrant community and excellent schools to raise my children. Since then, I’ve opened and operated a business here, choosing to work within the very community I call home. Over the years, I have fully embraced Spring Hill, and I’m passionate about ensuring its continued growth in a way that preserves its unique charm for future generations. I am committed to making sure every citizen has a voice in shaping our community’s future and that our youth have access to healthy, enriching activities right here in our city.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I have had the privilege of serving on various committees and boards, where I’ve been deeply involved in budgeting, strategic planning, and fostering collaboration between organizations and businesses to drive growth and financial stability. My roles have included serving on the Finance and HR Committees, as well as acting as Chairperson for Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce, where I contributed to the development of the strategic plan, oversaw budgeting processes, and assisted in facilitating partnerships between the Chamber and city.

As President of my local Homeowners Association, I’ve successfully increased our reserves and made significant improvements to our common areas, all while maintaining one of the lowest HOA dues in Spring Hill. My passion for supporting youth has also led me to sit on the board of Endeavor Youth Recovery, a nonprofit dedicated to helping at-risk children and those battling drug and alcohol addiction. Additionally, I’m involved with the Turkey Burn Committee for the Tennessee Children’s Home, working to raise awareness and funds for our local boys’ home.

My experience extends to business operations, where I’ve assisted in the opening of a restaurant, an Orangetheory Fitness location in Knoxville, and run my own business. These ventures have honed my skills in organizational development, business forecasting, budgeting, and human resources, while also providing leadership to teams ranging from 3 to 50 employees.

Daily, I focus on mitigating risk to protect my clients’ assets, which has sharpened my forwardthinking approach—one that will help our city make thoughtful, long-term decisions that will benefit future generations. My diverse experience, strategic mindset, and passion for community development make me well-equipped to serve as an effective and impactful alderman for Spring Hill.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

JAIMEE DAVIS

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

Water and sewage management is a critical issue for Spring Hill’s future. Ensuring access to sustainable water resources is essential, and I will advocate for the city to have a voice in securing new water lines for future generations.

As someone deeply involved in budgeting for multiple organizations, I understand that financial health is the foundation of progress. Restoring and maintaining a balanced budget will enable us to invest in key areas such as infrastructure, public safety, libraries, parks and recreation which fosters long-term growth and vitality for our community.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

One of the top opportunities for Spring Hill is to create an environment that attracts businesses and reduces economic leakage—when residents spend money in neighboring cities because goods and services are unavailable locally. By encouraging local businesses to open and thrive, we can keep tax dollars within our community, fueling investment in critical areas such as infrastructure, public safety, libraries, and parks and recreation. Reducing leakage helps with traffic as well!!

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

This is not new to me, as I have been an active member of our community for years. I’ve participated in events like Day on the Hill, where I’ve had the opportunity to voice Spring Hill’s concerns and needs to our state representatives and senators. I am consistently engaged in meetings and events to advocate for the betterment of our city. The challenges facing surrounding counties inevitably impact us, which is why strong representation of our BOMA at events is crucial for our city. My track record speaks for itself—I’ve been doing this for years, building relationships and alliances that will benefit Spring Hill. To be heard and make a difference, you must show up. I always show up, and I always will.

Spring Hill is one of the top ten fastest-growing cities in Tennessee, and these improvements require strong collaboration at the state level. To ensure our voice is heard, I will actively foster relationships that give us a strategic advantage. Attending GNRC meetings and building partnerships, such as with TDOT, will be crucial in advocating for essential road improvements.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

JAIMEE DAVIS

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

To me, sustainable growth means addressing our water and sewage issues, planning for more schools, and developing infrastructure. We can achieve this by creating opportunities to generate tax revenue that benefits our city and supports local businesses, preventing economic leakage. Growth and infrastructure must be balanced—too much growth without proper planning, causes the challenges we face today, while lack of growth leads to stagnation. Spring Hill is a thriving city, and we need to foster an environment where people choose to live, work, and spend here, ensuring the tax dollars necessary for our continued sustainability.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

I will continue to communicate through Facebook, my website, one on one coffee meeting, and involvement in town hall type meetings.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

A successful term, to me, means having a healthy, balanced budget that supports the long-term growth of our city. It will involve executing a comprehensive plan to address our water and sewage challenges, while also creating an environment that reduces economic leakage and promotes sustainable development. I envision a Spring Hill where businesses thrive and where our citizens have access to diverse recreational options. Ultimately, success will be measured by our ability to build a strong, sustainable future for Spring Hill that benefits both current and future generations.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

This is something I am deeply committed to and will continue to prioritize if elected. As past Chairman of the Spring Hill Chamber, I’ve consistently sponsored the joint Women in Business events at both chambers every year since opening my business. I actively attend all joint events because I believe the Chambers are one of the city’s greatest assets, empowering businesses and connecting them with the community. The Chamber members are in touch with our citizens and serve as a direct link to understanding the pulse of Spring Hill. I’ve always been—and will always remain—PRO CHAMBER. These organizations do an outstanding job welcoming new residents and fostering a strong sense of community, and they deserve the full support of the city as an extension of our collective voice.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

WILLIAM POMEROY

1. Why are you running for this position?

I am fortunate to have served Spring Hill for the past four years as a member of the Spring Hill Board of Mayor and Aldermen and I hope to continue my contributions to make our city an even better place than it is today. I intend to work and help achieve our city’s goals of delivering “efficient and top-notch services that promote safety, enhance the quality of life and contribute to the economic well-being of our community.” I want to make sure that we build and improve the city’s infrastructure, that development projects are monitored and administered for the community’s welfare, and I want to preserve our city’s history and give citizens a voice in our city’s direction.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

While I have been a BOMA member, I have supported infrastructure improvements, sound community planning, and I have worked with my colleagues to preserve and strengthen the best of Spring Hill’s attributes, character, and image. My experiences as an attorney and former Army officer help me understand rules, procedures and regulations necessary for successful planning and execution of city projects and development.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

The top challenges facing Spring Hill are accommodating the vast population growth we have seen recently, the expansion of the current wastewater treatment system, construction of a new library, moving public works to its new facility, and the ongoing upgrade of city parks to include development of the newly acquired 33.65 acres off Hurt Road for a large park in the middle of Spring Hill.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

The development of Legacy Point on Kedron Road is a premier United States Tennis Association facility which will boost Spring Hill’s identity in the region. By continuing to attract talented citizens, Spring Hill can guarantee improvement of its image and appeal to other exceptional investments which will make our city an even better place to live, work, and play.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

WILLIAM POMEROY

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

Spring Hill works well with municipalities in both Maury and Williamson counties on issues such as water intake development, emergency responses, and infrastructure improvements. By constant communication with other cities and towns, we can secure collaborative action on regional challenges.

The city regularly seeks federal and state grants to help pay or offset the costs of needed infrastructure improvements. As a BOMA member, I will urge my fellow aldermen to maintain requirements that developers pay impact fees and fulfill their commitments and obligations to make road improvements and construct sidewalks and that they make room for green spaces.

The city can ensure these obligations by using Spring Hill’s mandated Traffic Impact Studies which require developers to pay a portion of our infrastructure improvements.

Using a third party to prepare a fee analysis, the city conducted a rate study to fund our new Advanced Purification Plan which includes a large water reservoir within the city limits which will reduce the need to draw water from other sources and improve water capabilities during droughts.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Building a water reservoir will help to reduce water intake from the Duck River. The city code also ensures green space comes with every new development and we recently became a tree city which helps to protect old trees. Our contract with Waste Management includes recycling to reduce land fill use. Spring Hill has adopted a comprehensive water conservation plan to lower our water demands.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

My email address is on the city website which I regularly check. I have my personal number on the city issued business cards which I distribute, and I have an answering service. I make sure that I am available to respond to citizens’ requests concerning matters of the day.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

WILLIAM POMEROY

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

A successful term would be constant attention to BOMA’s goals including long range planning and investments in city infrastructure. We must continue to monitor developers so that they pay satisfactory impact fees, construct roadways for their projects and keep mindful of commitments to sustainable growth.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

The City of Spring Hill has enjoyed good relationships with the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce as well as that of Williamson Inc. which I shall continue to work to maintain and strengthen. Working together helps our communities grow and prosper, assists small businesses and bolsters a competitive marketplace to meet the needs of all.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

SCOTT WERNERT

1. Why are you running for this position?

As a resident and servant of the city for the past 6 years I wish to continue to improve our community while keeping the fundamental history and culture of our city intact while ensuring financial stability for the city.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I retired from a county EMS service in Florida where I worked closely with the county commissioners with advancing and improving the county EMS service. I currently work for the Williamson EMS service and work specifically in the Spring Hill area and have come to work closely with the city government. I also attended the first Spring Hill Citizens Academy, this has educated me about all city departments. I regularly attend the biweekly BOMA meetings and keep up with current city issues. Because of my personnel history in public safety is a major concern for me, safety and security for our citizens. It is my hope to add my professional experience to enhance the safety and security of Spring Hill.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

Extensive growth and expansion are at a rapid rate and is very concerning to me. We must ensure that our city departments are prepared to meet the needs of the residents and businesses of this community. The city of Spring Hill must maintain high expectations from their city officials as well as all the department heads, which are forward-thinking and perpetual planners to adapt to both growth and financial resources at their disposal.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Spring Hill is becoming a prime location in Middle Tennessee with easy access to interstates and surrounded by ever expanding cities in relatively short distances. The city is very favorable to both residential and commercial entities. It will be imperative that we choose the most economically sound and community beneficial organizations and services for our citizens. BOMA must recognize the benefits of competing groups for future approval.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

The city of Spring Hill straddling both Maury County and Williamson County, it has become extremely important to work in unison with the other governmental agencies. Constant coordination and communication are imperative for all these groups so that redundant and wasteful expenditure do not occur.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2 SCOTT WERNERT

This growth the BOMA must work well with County, State and possibly Federal organizations due to the need for drastic infrastructure needs such as local, county and state roads as well as interstate accessibility. Water use has also become a major concern for our city as with the increase in population comes an increase in water consumption. The environmental concerns around the Duck River, we must be able to consider other resources for future water needs. Power resources from the TVA will need to be improved in the city as well. Police and Fire Dept. will need to continue to grow and advance in capabilities to better serve our citizens, keeping our community safe and well served by these departments. This means city officials must continue to expand our communication and education to advance the availability of these resources.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

With growth there is always trade moving from the old and replacing it with new. Since moving to Tennessee, I have become extremely protective of Tennessee history, especially of the history within and surrounding Spring Hill. This is the personality of our city and the foundation on which it was built. Therefore, any decision I would make would begin with ensuring that our history is protected and will not change the Spring Hills vibrant personality. We must also consider all environmental concerns regarding our future to ensure that the resources we are consuming will be available for future generations.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

Lack of communication is the crux of failure. It is therefore imperative to me to allow ease of access for all constituents directly to me. Today’s technology access to individuals has become much easier. Email, texting and office hour phone calls are all acceptable resources, but I feel direct verbal communication is best, as nonverbal cues are very important to expressing intentions between two people or groups. I am always open to meeting directly with individuals if requested. Use of social media allows for a wider reach of all information that involves city issues and connects easily to all citizens. My hope is to use social media often to keep citizens updated on events as rapidly as possible.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

Success to me will be based on citizens’ response and contentment with how the city is working for their interest. I hold the citizens’ safety and security as a high priority and will continually fight for improvement. Fiscal responsibility for all city departments to ensure financial stability for the city will always be a priority and should be for all city officials.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 2

SCOTT WERNERT

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

The mission statement of Maury County Alliance, “The Mission of The Maury County Chamber and Economic Alliance is to facilitate business opportunities for Chamber members and create job growth through economic development”. This statement should also detail how Spring Hill prepares itself for future expansion. We must protect our local business owners and their employees. We should always look for new opportunities for future growth that will benefit the citizens and businesses of Spring Hill.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 3

ERINN HARTWELL

1. Why are you running for this position?

The Spring Hill community is a family-based community filled with young households. An added advantage is the seniors who graciously share their child rearing experiences, helping to “nurture the next” . I want to enhance and support all entities for the betterment of Spring Hill with a focus on children and seniors.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I have absolutely no experience in politics, but I have more than twenty years of experience in childcare, customer service, and community relations. As a young girl, I wanted to marry and have ten children. Got married with three beautiful children and God blessed me with hundreds of children as a childcare provider. My entire life I have embraced my love of people, especially children and the elderly. As an alderman, one of my priorities is providing services and activities that embrace our two most important people.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

Lack of venues to promote education, physical activities and life skills outside the classroom and allowing homeschoolers to interact with others of the same age and interest. Promoting good, clean, fun!

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Growth! Spring Hill is a diamond being uncovered. Some would classify our city as a bedroom community, but as more and more people relocate to make Spring Hill home. We need more anchor stores and a performance venue for family outings. With the oversight and assistance of our local Chamber of Commerce, a special committee of citizens and business owners develop a plan of work to entice anchor stores, full-service a hospital. Youth Ambassadors’ preparing leaders for tomorrow.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

Cross training and interaction with other municipalities allows our elected officials and the community at large to vigorously grow, flourish and develop. By attending training for local and national municipalities, one can apply learned skills to what is needed in our county. Plan and implement a monthly and/or quarterly online conversation to share and acquire a shared knowledge base. Learn how each city municipality works and if these municipal systems will be applicable and a successful plan of work for our city.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 3 ERINN HARTWELL

As forestated, families are relocating to our community almost daily. With more people we have increased the tax base from home purchase to shopping for daily needs. The state and federal government offers various grants that may be identified to assist with city improvements. We don’t want to overload families with increased ad valorem or millage tax.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Spring Hill is filled and surrounded by people who care about how they live and when you care about your city, you work and/or support it in order to maintain it. I never wanted to work for a company and/or others. My grandmother gave me wise advice… if you don’t want to work for a company, you have to prepare yourself and work hard to take care of yourself. Spring Hill! In order to sustain, we’re going to need to WORK!

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

On a daily basis!

Right now, everyone in Spring Hill knows just about everyone else and that’s a good thing. With all the various forms of electronic communication, staying on the radar and accessible will be a task for staff and students (community service and summer enrichment programs). And I’m at the Southern Baking Company every day but Monday. Stop by and enjoy delicious pastry, snack or coffee and we can have a face to face conversation.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

Making successful strides one at a time. Kamila Tan wrote, regardless of how old you are, where you live, or what your career goals are, it’s likely your ultimate goals in life are to be happy and successful. To be successful means more than just having money and making your mark. It means following your passions, living purposefully, and enjoying the present moment. I want to work with the people and for the people. One step at a time.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

Earlier I mentioned, Leadership Spring Hill and Young Ambassador programs. These two entities are in cities, and they are working to teach and prepare future leaders. They are under the umbrella of the Chamber of Commerce. Spring Hill has young leaders who are excited about helping build our city!

I want to ensure that Spring Hill grows in a reasonable and responsible way.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Spring Hill is a wonderful community with much to offer. I am eager to see the town attract more businesses that will draw visitors from outside the area to experience its unique charm.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

My main concern will always be the people of our community. If it benefits our entire community or, when needed, lifts up those most vulnerable, it’s good for Spring Hill.

In addition to the revenue from expanding residential properties, I would like to add businesses that would attract outside visitors to bring in additional revenue.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

A balance is needed between residential and business growth. But before growth occurs, infrastructure plans must be in place to accommodate it.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 1 KIMBERLY HUGHES

1. Why are you running for this position?

This opportunity has emerged at a decisive moment in my life, allowing me to devote myself exclusively to addressing the needs and concerns of the citizens. I am committed to being part of the solution. I am eager to hear what the citizens have to say, and I am dedicated to understanding what they feel is important and what needs to be done. Knowing their voice will enable me to accurately represent them and they deserve that. I am driven to make a meaningful contribution to our future. I know the heart of Spring Hill and we have something special here that no one else has. I also have some knowledge of the complexities of big government, and I am aware of the pitfalls and how to preserve our town’s uniqueness.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

I’ve spent 7 years as a schoolteacher, educating students from Pre-K to 8th grade. Additionally, I’ve served as a Homeland Security Officer for 10 years, including 2 years on a National Advisory Council, where I contributed to decision-making processes impacting over 55,000 employees. My experience as a small business owner has also provided me with a unique understanding of various perspectives. Furthermore, I’ve advocated for countless Military widows in navigating government agencies to ensure access to their rights, privileges, and benefits, particularly in relation to the PACT Act and the Elizabeth Dole Act that has helped over 2 million Veterans, their families and Survivors.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

Number one is to moderate our growth rate. To safeguard our safety, adopting a more gradual approach is crucial, enabling us to focus on strengthening our infrastructure and resolving concerns like traffic congestion.

The establishment of a trauma center/hospital is vital, as it will enable residents to receive superior medical care without incurring lengthy commutes. I intend to expedite and ensure the swift initiation of this project.

In addition, I am dedicated to ensuring that we employ a water reservoir and that our water filtration system accesses the best available source to deliver superior quality.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

The opportunity for the people of Spring Hill to have access to all budget deficits. Where the water and sewage funds are going and how many times a budget is submitted or resubmitted to the state. It appears that increased transparency among the people would be beneficial. Spring Hill is to moderate growth. This can be done by ensuring our citizens’ homes continue to appreciate while maintaining low taxes. Possibly introducing a “Know your neighbor” program by highlighting people in our local neighborhoods regularly could also be beneficial.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

As a Gold Star Surviving Spouse of 7 years, having been married to an Army Officer who served for over 20 years and was also a Policeman for nearly 20 years, I am proud to remain a part of the strong first responder’s family community, and I value working with each municipality (both Maury and Williamson) and the county to address concerns and provide feedback.

Managing our city’s growth to create jobs and drive economic progress is essential. By tapping into the existing skills and talents of our community, we can achieve a healthy budget. To realize this goal, I will collaborate with local and if necessary federal authorities to allocate funding for strategic projects, proper growth initiatives, and maintenance programs, ultimately guiding our growth in a way that aligns with our self-directed values.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

Spring Hill should be debit free with a more opportunities for families, particularly in sports and activities. Traditional pursuits such as bicycling, roller skating, community gardening, farming, and utilizing existing spaces to appreciate the beauty of rural life would be ideal. By providing safe and environments that are social for all, it looks like people selecting responsible practices that do not compromise our future.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

To date, I have engaged with numerous constituents through various communication channels, such as face to face, social media, phone calls, text messaging, and emails. My schedule allows for maximum availability, ensuring I can provide diligent service to the community. I’d also like to develop an ‘ask the city’ type of App or link with a dedicated representative to provide personalized responses. I believe creating a Spring Hill App would provide citizens with a convenient and accessible means of interacting with the city.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

Full transparency of government meetings and initiatives, a vibrant and accessible forum for public engagement (amplified by technology), increasing per capita wages (beyond wealth concentration among the elite), outstanding schools, and prime job opportunities for youth with a clear career advancement framework.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

As a former small business owner, I am familiar with Chambers and would like to encourage more family-owned businesses with great potential to establish themselves in both Maury and Williamson counties of Spring Hill.

1. Why are you running for this position?

When Jessi and I were looking for a place to build our life together and raise our family, we found something special in Spring Hill - a community with incredible potential. Growing up in Middle Tennessee, I honestly never thought I would move back to the area after college and law school. But when I started looking for where I wanted to put down roots and raise a family, I realized there’s nowhere else that offers what Middle Tennessee, and especially Spring Hill, can provide. For almost a decade now, Spring Hill has been home to our family - where we’ve had the joy of raising our daughter Norah, who’s now four and a half and growing up fast in this wonderful community.

As a local business owner who built my law firm from the ground up in Williamson County, I understand firsthand both the opportunities and challenges our growth brings - I sit in those same traffic backups on I-65 every morning heading to the office and it’s caused me to do something about it. During my first term as alderman, I’ve focused on tackling these challenges head on - especially our infrastructure needs. When our Highway 31 widening project lost its place on TDOT’s priority list, I stepped up to serve as Spring Hill’s representative to the Greater Nashville Regional Council’s Transportation Policy Board - a role typically held by the Mayor. Through building strong regional partnerships on this board that helps allocate state road funding, we successfully restored funding for this $300 million project, making it one of only 90 selected from more than 700 projects submitted across Tennessee (and the 4th largest project). We’ve also delivered on public safety, building our city’s first standalone police headquarters and advancing the Mitchell Earwood Memorial Fire Station 4. Additionally, I was one of two elected officials at the hearing advocating on Spring Hill’s behalf for the state to approve the Certificate of Need for the new TriStar Hospital to serve out community. But as anyone who drives our roads knows, there’s still significant work ahead to bring Spring Hill’s infrastructure to where it needs to be.

I’m running because I want Spring Hill to remain the kind of place where our kids will want to build their own futures someday. That means making smart decisions now about infrastructure, managed growth, and increasing the quality of life for all of us who call Spring Hill home. These aren’t just policy issues for me - they’re about preserving what makes our community special while planning responsibly for our future.

Spring Hill’s brightest days are ahead, and I want to keep working to make that vision a reality for all our families.

2. What specific experience and qualifications do you have that make you the ideal candidate for this position?

My experience as both a business owner and attorney gives me a unique perspective on city leadership. Building my firm, Linville Estate Law, from just me and a laptop in 2021 to a seven figure firm in 2024 has taught me valuable lessons about strategic planning, fiscal responsibility, and managing growth - skills that translate directly to making decisions for our city.

During my first term as alderman, I’ve served on key committees that shape Spring Hill’s future. On the Budget and Finance Advisory Committee, we’ve improved our S&P bond rating (which was again reaffirmed in December 2024) while cutting property tax rates twice. When Spring Hill needed stronger representation in crucial Williamson County planning discussions, I served on the Growth Plan Coordinating Committee, where my approach helped protect our city’s $30 million infrastructure investment at June Lake Boulevardensuring we maintain control over future economic development in this strategic corridor. I understand that the solutions to Spring Hill’s biggest challenges aren’t found within our city limits alone. Success requires building strong partnerships with county, state, and regional authorities to bring additional resources to our community. Over the past four years, I’ve not only built these relationships but have delivered tangible results through them. Combined with my business and legal background, I believe I am uniquely qualified to effectively advocate for Spring Hill’s interests at every level.

3. What do you see as the top challenges for Spring Hill and how do you plan to contribute to addressing those?

As I see it, sewer/water infrastructure and road infrastructure challenges top the list of Spring Hill’s challenges.

Most people are well aware of our road infrastructure needs but may not know as much about our sewer and water challenges. We are quickly approaching the capacity of our sewer plant, which currently hovers around 80-85% capacity. This requires both immediate action and longterm planning.

Over the past few years, we’ve been working on parallel solutions. We’re relocating our Public Works facility to make room for a crucial sewer plant expansion. However, expanding capacity is only part of the solution - we’re also at our limit for discharge into Rutherford Creek. That’s why we’re advancing Project SWIFT, an innovative water purification facility and reservoir that will secure Spring Hill’s water independence for multiple generations while solving our discharge limitations.

I’ve already talked a lot in this questionnaire about road projects, but the last four years, we have put plans in place to improve the intersection at Buckner Lane and Port Royal Road to improve traffic flow on Port Royal while also working with development to put plans in place to widen Kedron Road from Main Street to Saturn Parkway to three lanes. While we have fiscal constraints that limit what we can do, we are bringing our resources to bear to deliver infrastructure improvements as quickly as we can.

Underlying both challenges is the need for us to stay fiscally strong in the face of opportunities to invest in infrastructure needs. We have balanced that over the past four years as evidenced by our bond rating upgrade, which was reaffirmed just two months ago in December.

4. What do you see as the top opportunities for Spring Hill and how do you plan to utilize those to move our community forward?

Spring Hill has incredible opportunity in front of us. While we’ve been known as a bedroom community, our potential extends far beyond that. Our unique position between Williamson and Maury Counties - two of Tennessee’s most dynamic areas - gives us unprecedented opportunities because of our exceptional quality of life and desirability as a great place to live, work, and raise a family.

To the north, we’re connected to one of the nation’s strongest economic corridors. To the south, we’re part of a rapidly expanding hub for manufacturing and technology investment. We’re uniquely positioned to grow from a residential community into a true destination for both businesses and families through strong economic development opportunities. The key is being good stewards of these opportunities. Every decision we make about infrastructure, growth, and development will shape Spring Hill’s future. With careful planning and strong leadership, we can build something extraordinary while preserving the character that makes our community special.

5. How do you plan to work collaboratively with each municipality and the county to ensure the decisions being made are in the best interest of Maury County as a whole?

First and foremost, collaboration comes down to building relationships. It is hard to work together to find solutions to problems without having a relationship that underlies those discussions.

Working effectively with both Williamson and Maury County requires understanding each area’s unique priorities while finding common ground that benefits all our residents. This means being present at regional planning discussions, actively participating in shared initiatives, and ensuring Spring Hill’s voice is heard while remaining a good partner to our neighboring communities. Good governance isn’t about drawing lines between jurisdictions - it’s about finding ways to work together that make our entire region better. At the end of the day, we’re all in this together, facing a lot of the same issues. By collaborating as a region, we can tackle challenges more effectively and make our whole community stronger for everyone who lives here.

As I mentioned earlier, the solutions to Spring Hill’s biggest challenges aren’t found within our city limits alone. I think three things are important: First, funding infrastructure improvements often comes down to how effectively you can bring state and federal resources into Spring Hill.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 4

TRENT LINVILLE

The only reason that the June Lake interchange was prioritized by TDOT and built was because Spring Hill won a $25 million federal grant to fund part of the construction. We need elected officials that understand how to set Spring Hill up to maximize the funding that flows into Spring Hill. During my last four years, I have learned so much about that process and have, along with incredible city staff members, put Spring Hill in a position to receive millions of dollars in both road and sewer/water infrastructure dollars over the next few years. Secondly, regional collaboration with our city and county neighbors is also crucial for infrastructure solutions. An example is Williamson Inc’s ‘KeepItLocalTN’ initiative, which advocates for counties to retain a portion of real estate transfer taxes for local infrastructure improvements instead of going to the State of Tennessee’s budget. I also worked with our legislative delegation to create support for the Maury County impact fee legislation over the past few years. When we work together with our neighbors around common goals, we amplify our voice and increase our effectiveness. That only happens by building relationships with those partners.

Third, we must ensure that growth continues to pay for itself. While state law and the US Constitution require impact fees to be proportional to development impact, we should fully utilize every tool available to us. During my first term, we’ve acted on this front - bringing development fees up to market rate, bringing electrical inspections in house rather than having the state do them to keep fees local, and maximizing our Adequate Facilities Tax on new development. These adjustments help ensure that growth pays for growth.

7. What does thoughtful and sustainable growth in Spring Hill look like to you?

We have a significant concern in Spring Hill with our ability to limit growth because the State of Tennessee is incredibly pro-growth. Their policy trickles down to impact every part of the state. Additionally, once a project is zoned appropriately in Spring Hill, the city does not have the ability to slow down a project if it complies with the city’s Unified Development Code. When I stepped into office four years ago, there were in excess of 10,000 approved but not yet built residential units in Spring Hill. That is a daunting truth that not a single person running for office right now can reverse. If anyone tells you they can, they simply don’t understand how things work and you should view their response with skepticism. Thoughtful and responsible growth looks like not adding to the problem unless it provides a significant back to the city. For example, the US Tennis Association project has a residential component, however, it reduced the allowed density on the project significantly while providing a significant economic impact and tourism draw to Spring Hill while building a road connecting the Crossings to Kedron Road that would have cost the city around $6 million. Those sorts of projects are a win for the city. I think most would be surprised to learn that over the past few years, the BOMA has only approved one solely residential re-zone request (I have voted for zero)- my rationale for that is because of the sewer concerns I wrote about earlier.

8. How do you plan to communicate with, and be available to, your constituents?

Open communication with residents has been a priority during my first term as alderman. I regularly share updates about city initiatives and BOMA decisions through my Facebook page, helping keep our community informed about projects that affect their daily lives.

Residents can always reach me directly by phone or email to discuss their concerns, ask questions, or share ideas about Spring Hill’s future. Over the past four years, I’ve had countless conversations with neighbors about everything from specific infrastructure projects, neighborhood concerns around how developers are treating residents, to broader visions for our city’s growth.

Moving forward, I’ll continue this open-door approach to communication. Whether it’s through social media updates, phone calls, emails, or face-to-face conversations, I want residents to know their voice matters in shaping Spring Hill’s future.

9. What does a successful term look like to you?

Over the past four years, we’ve seen how the solutions we ‘plant’ today yield results for Spring Hill’s future. Just like farmers who must till the soil, plant seeds, and cultivate their crops, city leadership requires both patience and persistent effort. During my first term, we’ve harvested some of the solutions previous BOMAs set in motion, like the June Lake Interstate Exit and Buckner Lane widening, while planting seeds for future improvements through projects like having Highway 31 widening programmed, the Police HQ, and Fire Station 4. Spring Hill remains an incredible place to live, work, and raise a family - which is why more people and businesses continue choosing our community. Our job now is to carefully cultivate the investments we’ve made while “planting” new solutions for tomorrow’s challenges. From strengthening our infrastructure to managing responsible growth, each decision we make today will shape Spring Hill’s future for years to come. Success means continuing this careful balance: celebrating completed projects that improve our quality of life, nurturing the initiatives already in motion, and thoughtfully planting new solutions that will serve future generations of Spring Hill families.

10. If elected, how do you plan to partner with both the Maury County Chamber & Economic Alliance and Spring Hill Chamber of Commerce to make Maury County the best place to live and work?

First, I want to thank the Chamber of Commerce and the Committee of Political Affairs for continuing to foster important discussions about Spring Hill’s future. Having attended nearly every Spring Hill Chamber luncheon over the past four years, I’ve met so many incredible business leaders that help make our city great.

SPRING HILL ALDERMAN - WARD 4

The relationships built through consistent engagement with these Chamber members have proven invaluable during my first term as alderman. Our business leaders provide crucial perspective on economic development, infrastructure needs, and community growth. Their insights have helped inform important decisions, from protecting our investment in the June Lake corridor to expanding our commercial tax base with projects like the US Tennis Association facility.

When we work together - city leadership and business community - we create the kind of economic climate that benefits all our residents. My consistent presence and engagement with the Chamber over the past four years demonstrates my commitment to fostering these relationships for Spring Hill’s continued success.
