NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) â Under Mayor John Cooper s proposed property tax rate, the city s equalized rate will be the third-lowest of all time in all of Metro s history - $3.28.
However, even if that low proposed rate passes, it does not necessarily mean homeowners will save any money. State law requires anytime that property values go up, the tax rate must come down. And needless to say, Nashville s market is hot.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) â Ahead of a key vote to create a transit plan for Nashville, some council members are raising concerns about details in the plan.
Metro Council will take up the vote Tuesday night. However, one council member, Kathleen Murphy, said she doesn t believe the public had been given ample opportunity to review the plan. It s 348 pages long. There hasn t been constituent and Nashvillian input after it s been written, said Councilwoman Murphy. They did a good job of having community meetings. Then a plan was filed, it s very large. It s over 300 pages and expected the council to vote upon it and endorse it. I haven t had feedback from my constituents and they haven t even had time to look at this plan and give me this feedback.
