Barry unveils Office of Economic Opportunity and Empowerment

Mayor Megan Barry gathered the media at the Metro Courthouse once again Thursday to announce the creation of the Mayor's Office of Economic Opportunity and Empowerment, another in a series of changes she has made to the staffing and organizational structure of the office since her inauguration last month.

The mayor says the new office, led by former Metro Council member Erik Cole, will "focus on making sure Nashville's growth results in an increased quality of life for all Nashvillians."
