Events Coming Up

Monday, April 6th

Mayoral Debate between Mary Smith and Andy Marshall hosted by WCRP. This is a very important event and I encourage everyone who is able to attend. Being mayor of Williamson County is a full-time job. The mayor sets the course on which the entire county follows. The next four years are, in my opinion, pivotal, and we need wise and knowledgeable leadership at the top. I know who I am supporting and will elaborate on that next week. But, in the meantime, I think it is important that you watch the debate and make your own decision.

The debate is free, but the WCRP is asking that you register so they can get a count of attendees. You can go here for full details and to register.

Tuesday, April 7th

School Board candidate forum hosted by WCRP and Mom's For Liberty WC. This is another important event. We have 12 school board members in the county and every two years, six are up for election. This year it is the even districts. On Tuesday, you will have a chance to hear what each candidate has to say. It is a free event, but the WCRP and MFL are asking that you register so they can get a count of attendance. Go here to register.

Tuesday, April 14th

Tennessee Right to Life is meeting. For full information, go here

Wednesday, April 15th

early voting for all Williamson County positions begins. This includes, the Mayor, County Commission (all 24), County School Board (six), Sheriff, County Clerk, County Trustee, Juvenile Court Clerk, Register of Deeds. If you don't know what district you are in go here, to see if you are registered to vote, go here. To see where to vote, go here. You must be registered by Monday, April 6th to vote. Go here for voter registration information.

Special event

Saturday, May 2nd There is an organization here in Williamson County called We Care Williamson County that raises money for worthy causes every year. This year, they are including a charity I started called Operation Sound. What my charity does is provide musical instruments for veterans who want to learn to play. They will be holding a Crawfish Boil on Saturday, May 2nd from noon to 5 pm at Tony's Eat and Drink in Franklin. You can also donate on their website.

The affordable housing issue in Williamson County

From time to time I will be highlighting various issues in Williamson County. Williamson County has become an expensive place to live. Because of this, many people who work in the county can't afford to live here. Like so many issues, affordable housing is complicated. I do think it is something that we need to think about in the next four years. With that in mind, I asked one of our high school students at Ravenwood High to do some research on the topic. I think she did an outstanding job at highlighting our options. To read her report, go here. There is no easy answer, and we really need to let the market work, but there are things we can do like not overtaxing single-family house rentals that can make it easier for lower income families to live where they work. Any ideas you all have are always welcome.

The AI program I use is pretty accurate, but it does make mistakes from time to time and I don't always catch them. I provide agendas and videos/audios when I have them available and recommend that you watch the video and follow along with the summary to get the most accurate report.

One of the limitations of AI is that if a participant's name is not called out, then they are listed as participant 1, 2, etc. A limitation with audio, as opposed to video, is that one cannot always identify a person by voice alone. As imperfect as these AI summaries are, they still give a pretty good account of a meeting.

AI Summary

Action Items

• [ ] Participant 3 - Research and share cost to open a new school Commissioner asked for a true number covering both operational costs and core staffing for an average elementary, middle, and high school opening.
• [ ] Superintendent Jason Golden- Send William assistant superintendent org chart, headcount history, and salaries/benefits William asked how many assistant superintendents existed ~10 years ago (to compare to the current 6), plus an org chart and compensation details for all assistant superintendents. Org chart is already on the website; salary/benefits need to be pulled separately.

Overview

• WCS presented a proposed FY2026-27 budget with a $22M gap — $12.6M of that is the proposed 4% pay raise, with the remaining ~$9.5M an operational shortfall
• The district cut $11.2M from operations and $5.6M from payroll (28.9 FTEs) before bringing this budget forward, netting a $7.7M reduction — but mandatory additions and the structural cost of last year's 92%-to-94% revenue collection rate change offset those cuts
• Total budgeted revenue is $526M, up $12M from last year, but expenses (including the 4% raise and a $7.2M textbook adoption) push the gap to $22M
• Estimated fund balance entering next year is $39M, down significantly from prior years, with $17.1M required as a minimum — leaving little cushion
• The TESA formula requires WCS to cover 6.74% of the statewide local share despite having only ~4.1% of state students; the district receives ~$4,600 per student against a stated base of $7,530
• Rezoning and potential school consolidation for low-enrollment schools (several under 50% capacity) is planned for fall discussion
• Education Committee approved the Cafeteria Fund ($21.6M) and Extended School Program Fund ($8.2M) — both self-contained with no county tax dollars
• Next meetings: Education Committee April 27th, Budget Committee April 28th, final vote in June

$22M budget gap overview

• The gap breaks down as $12.6M for the proposed 4% raise and ~$9.5M in operational shortfall
• When WCS presented to the school board in February, the gap was $39M; cuts and revised projections brought it to $22M by March
• The 92%-to-94% revenue collection rate change approved last year freed up ~$5M for raises in the current year, but that's now a recurring expense — effectively creating a ~$10M structural gap across two budget years
• Participant 6 said the district has concluded it can't close the remaining gap through further expense cuts without affecting student services
• Over the last 5 years, revenue grew 22.66% while expenses grew 25.26%; CPI over the same period was ~25%
• The district runs 52 schools on ~50 campuses with 5,000+ full-time and ~2,000 part-time employees and 40,555 students enrolled as of March 3rd

Operational cuts

• Gross operational cuts totaled $11.2M, but mandatory additions brought the net operational reduction to $2,011,038
• Cuts spanned all 26 departments and included mileage reimbursements, copy paper budgets capped with no replenishment after exhausted, software and contracted services, and elimination of working lunches during professional development
• The largest single cut was $2.7M for K-2 elementary computer purchases, deferred one year
• A spending freeze was placed on all departments roughly a month before the meeting, with all purchase requests reviewed and denied where possible to preserve fund balance
• Mandatory additions that offset cuts:
• $7.2M net increase for social studies textbook adoption (up from $2M this year; state's 8-year adoption cycle puts large adoptions every other year, ranging $9–10M)
• $706K for CTE Innovation Center startup costs (utilities, insurance, etc.) — partially offset by partnerships with City of Franklin, Cat Diesel, and TCAT providing equipment and a teacher
• $875K increase in liability and building/content insurance
• Built-in 5% janitorial contract increase
• Participant 3 noted the school board voted to include the full $7.2M textbook request after WCS had originally proposed deleting $2.2M of it to reduce the gap

Personnel and position cuts

• Payroll was reduced by $5.6M through a combination of right-sizing to staffing standards, adjusting payroll lines to actual hire experience levels, and eliminating unfilled positions
• Total net reduction was 28.9 FTEs (vs. 34.6 FTEs cut last year)
• Position eliminations included the deputy superintendent role (unfilled for Participant 6's entire 7-year tenure), an accounts payable processor, and positions in communications, maintenance, and a handful of school-level roles
• Positions were evaluated case-by-case — open math positions were kept because the district would hire immediately if a candidate was found; the deputy superintendent was removed because it had never been filled
• Participant 6 noted the district is better staffed now than at any point in his 20 years, partly because enrollment has flattened — but better staffing means less unspent payroll flowing back to fund balance
• Classified staff received only a 2% raise last year (vs. 4% for teachers) because the board redirected part of the raise pool to supplement increases; the proposed budget includes 4% for all staff this year
• Participant 5 asked for the org chart and salaries/benefits for all 6 assistant superintendents; Participant 6 confirmed both are available

Enrollment and low-capacity schools

• Current enrollment as of March 3rd is 40,555; projected to decrease slightly to 40,533 for next year
• Overall system capacity utilization is ~70–71%, with 6 schools below 70% and several significantly lower:
• Hunters Bend: ~45%
• Amanda North: below 60%
• Grassland Elementary: below 50%
• Hillsboro (K-8): ~60%
• Walnut Grove: ~65%
• Participant 10 raised that Hillsboro has a second grade class of 15 students and one second-grade teacher, and that consolidation could save a meaningful share of the $22M gap
• Participant 6 said the district plans to review actual enrollment numbers in fall and bring rezoning recommendations to the board — scope will include Nolensville (still growing), the Page area, and potentially the Grassland/Hunters Bend cluster
• Open zoning window closes in May; Grassland Middle (at 76%) is attracting open-zone families due to its Franklin High School feeder pattern
• Participant 6 noted that under TISA (unlike the old BEP formula), closing a school could produce real savings through economies of scale — one fewer principal, one fewer librarian — though teachers would follow students
• Sunset area school is also down ~70%; Participant 6 said a rezoning is already planned given that neighboring schools Mill Creek and Nolensville are at capacity
• Pre-K enrollment is projected lower at the start of the year (555 vs. current 730) because 3-year-olds age into the program throughout the year; WCS expects to add ~180 EC students over the course of the year

Virtual school

• Virtual school has 123 projected students and costs ~$130K net
• State law requires a full-time principal for every school, including virtual — the district cannot split the role with another campus
• Jason noted the school serves students with mental health needs, physical disabilities, and other circumstances that prevent in-person attendance, and the district would be obligated to serve those students regardless
• WCS receives the same per-pupil state funding for virtual students as for in-person students

TESA formula and state funding share

• The TESA base rate increased from $7,295 to $7,530 per student this year, but WCS actually receives ~$4,600 per student when total state receipts are divided by enrollment
• The fiscal capacity factor requires WCS to cover 6.74% of the statewide local share despite enrolling only ~4.1% of Tennessee students — meaning WCS effectively subsidizes ~2.6% of the state's students
• The formula works as a 70/30 state/local split on a statewide pot, but fiscal capacity adjustments mean WCS pays significantly more than the base local share
• WCS's weights allocation — meant to fund unique learning needs, poverty, and disabilities — yields only ~$112,000 in actual funding despite the formula suggesting ~$35M in weights
• EC (early childhood, ages 3–4 with disabilities) is a federal mandate not funded by the TESA base formula; federal funding covers ~$500–600K of an ~$8M+ cost
• Jason noted WCS's per-pupil expenditure hovers near the 50th percentile statewide, and the district was ~$40 below the state average in the most recent data — despite the county funding ~two-thirds of per-pupil costs
• WCS's ACT scores are 1.1 points above the next closest district (Germantown, a single high school district near Memphis)
• A bill introduced this year that would have addressed the gap between TESA funding and actual local share for high-capacity counties did not make it out of committee
• Sevier County is in a similar fiscal capacity position but for different reasons (high sales tax vs. WCS's high property tax base), making coalition-building difficult

Revenue projections

• Total budgeted revenue for FY2026-27 is $526M, up $12M from last year
• Revenue increase breakdown:
• Sales tax: +$4.3M (based on 3% growth over current year actuals, consistent with the last 4 years)
• Property tax: +$3.6M (based on 1% increase using latest county records, after FSD split)
• TESA: +$3.9M (based on first official estimate; does not include any fiscal capacity adjustment, which won't be known until April or May)
• Grants are not included in the original budget because they can't be guaranteed; they're added via budget amendment when received, with matching expenses, so they're revenue-neutral
• WCS received $2.4M from the state's school letter grade bonus (schools with 50%+ A-rated campuses) — down from $4M last year because more districts qualified statewide; already accounted for in fund balance
• PTOs and boosters raised over $15M last year in restricted gifts at the school level, separate from the district budget

Fund balance

• Estimated fund balance entering FY2026-27 is $39M, down significantly from prior years as the district has drawn on it to balance budgets
• State requires a minimum 3% unassigned fund balance at year-end — for WCS that's $17.1M
• Last year was the first year actual expenses exceeded actual revenue (excluding fund balance draws); the same is projected for this year
• Participant 3 noted 3 months of operating expenses for WCS equals ~$130M, putting the $39M fund balance in context — it's not a cushion
• The fund balance has historically been inflated by unfilled positions (budgeted but unspent payroll); as the district is now better staffed, that buffer is largely gone
• Participant 3 said the district has "eliminated any buffer" and there's nothing left to cut without affecting services

Cafeteria and extended school funds

• Central Cafeteria Fund budget request: $21,615,000 — no gap, no county tax dollars, self-contained
• Meal charges have not increased since 2018-19; no rate increases planned
• Extended School Program Fund (before/after childcare) budget request: $8.2M — no gap, no county tax dollars, self-contained
• Education Committee approved both funds

Capital request

• Capital request is a slight reduction from last year — down ~$500K
• Budget is split between general rules (K-8) and high school, reflecting the FSD split
• Covers both 5-year capital plan items (known needs like roofs and HVAC) and annual items identified by maintenance and principals
• One example highlighted: replacing wax-required tile floors with a no-wax material to reduce custodial costs over time

Teacher recruitment and retention

• Jason said WCS is competing more directly with neighboring districts for teachers than ever before, with pay being one factor but not the only one
• The district has built a collaborative teaching model over the last 7 years — teachers work in teams during planning periods, coached by instructional coaches — and is recruiting teachers who want that environment
• Instructional coaches (in both general instruction and special education lines) support especially early-career teachers, who are most at risk of leaving in their first 5 years
• The state is expanding licensure pathways (including job-embedded licensure) that allow teachers to start without completing pedagogy coursework, increasing the need for in-classroom coaching support
• Participant 6 wants WCS to provide a "professional living income" for teachers, which is harder as local cost of living rises

Special Court House Task Force Agenda Video

AI Summary

Action Items

• [ ] Bobby Cook - Prepare resolution for commission: September extension + $100K courthouse evaluation Two items to bundle: (1) extend Hill property contract through September with $175K hard earnest money (requires commission approval due to fiscal note), and (2) allocate $100K for courthouse architectural/design evaluation. Legal is ready to draft.
• [ ] Mayor Anderson - Sign Hill property contract extension to May 11 Task force voted to recommend the extension. Mayor noted he can execute this without additional commission approval since no new money is involved. Consider requesting the 12th as the deadline given commission meeting timing concerns.
• [ ] Rod heller- Assess historic courthouse for alternative uses Task force passed a motion engaging Rod and his group (Franklin Preservation Partners) to evaluate what the historic courthouse could look like under a long-term lease — not a sale. Mayor needs to coordinate access with the sheriff and his own office so staff know what's happening.
• [ ] Eric Stuckey - Prepare city presentation for April 27 meeting Cover three things: (1) city's downtown Franklin vision/envisioning plan, (2) the radius study from the city hall site search and what properties fell within it, and (3) the existing land use plan for the HD Hill property including community engagement context.
• [ ] Kevin Benson Director of Property- Resend updated county property list to task force Clean up and redistribute the schedule of county-owned properties for review at the April 27 meeting, including any additions or corrections.
• [ ] Bobby Cook - Initiate title search on historic courthouse Mayor flagged uncertainty about who actually owns the property given past title issues. Work through Bobby (legal) to confirm ownership — will also help Rod's assessment.

Overview

• Task force fully constituted with Sean Ayala as chair, Drew Torres as vice chair, and Rod Heller as historic preservation member
• Hill property contract due diligence expires April 9 — task force recommended extending to May 11 (no additional money) and bringing a resolution to the commission for a further extension to ~September requiring $175K in hard earnest money
• Task force voted to engage Rod Heller's preservation group to assess the historic courthouse for alternative uses (long-term lease scenario, not sale)
• Task force recommended a $100K allocation for courthouse design evaluation — either redesign of the 2020 plan or new construction on a new site — to be included in a resolution for the commission
• Next meeting set for April 27 at 5:30 PM, with stakeholder presentations and a review of county-owned property options on the agenda

Task force formation

• Rogers Anderson (Participant 1) opened the meeting and called for a chair nomination
• Sean Aiello elected chair, Drew Torres elected vice chair
• Rod Heller nominated by Aiello and approved by the task force as the historic preservation member

JJJ master plan overview

• Gresham Smith presented the 2020 Williamson County Justice System master plan, focused on the courthouse component at Ayala's direction
• The plan was a 25-year needs assessment begun in 2018, covering courthouse, adult jail, sheriff's office, juvenile courts, and juvenile detention
• Williamson County projected to have a 66% larger population by end of the planning period
• Courts program called for growing from 4 to 10 courtrooms
• Gresham Smith revalidated demographic data post-COVID for the jail and juvenile components (not the courthouse) and found no change to the macro growth curve — long-term projections held
• The courthouse component was set aside after the master plan and has not been revalidated
• Participant 8 (Stuckey) noted the city has contracted a downtown parking study that could feed into this process
• Participant 7 suggested it may be worth extending the planning horizon beyond the current 25-year cycle, given 6 years have already passed and design/construction timelines are long

Courthouse deficiencies

• Current courthouse space devoted to court functions is ~60,000 sq ft; both buildings combined total ~102,000 sq ft; the program need is ~116,000 sq ft
• Key operational issues identified in the 2020 plan: courts too small and varied in size, victim/witness/public mixing creating security risks, inadequate judicial support space, poor natural light, insufficient secure judicial parking, and an unsecured vehicle sally port
• The only county-owned expansion land adjacent to the existing facility is a small parcel along Church Street, severely constraining any on-site growth
• Circulation between the judicial center and historic courthouse is circuitous and not intuitive for the public; the proposed plan's secure judicial pathway still requires judges to pass through public areas to connect the two buildings
• Judge Hood (Participant 13) raised several deficiencies in the proposed 2020 renovation plan:
  • No dedicated space for district attorney and public defender negotiations, which are essential to managing caseload through pleas
  • Circuit court has 4 judges sharing 3 courtrooms, requiring "creative scheduling" that causes trial delays — constituents needing a trial date today could be looking at a second setting in 2027
  • Each judge needs their own courtroom for the system to function
  • Historic courthouse designated as civil-only in the plan, but civil courts also need holding cells — arrests happen in civil proceedings regularly and currently require a long, public walk to the other building
  • The proposed addition has 2 criminal courts per floor sharing 1 jury room per floor, meaning only one jury trial can run at a time per floor
  • No vending or food access for people spending full days in the building
• Judge Taylor (Participant 5) raised that any rehab scenario must account for the cost of temporarily relocating court operations during construction — that cost needs to be factored into the decision, not after it
• Participant 7 confirmed that as an outside observer, the courthouse issues that existed in 2020 appear largely unchanged today

Hill property contract

• Current due diligence period expires April 9 (one week from the meeting date)
• County Mayor will sign a no-cost extension to May 11 (the next county commission meeting) based on the task force's recommendation
• A second amendment extending the contract to ~September is expected imminently — it will require $175K in hard (non-refundable) earnest money, with $75K remaining as soft earnest money
• $250K in earnest money has already been placed
• Contract price is $17.5M; appraisal came in at $23.5M
• The commission voted in March to request a 180-day extension; by the time it's approved, it will effectively be a ~150-day extension
• Jim Cross (Participant 4) flagged that the May 11 deadline is midnight and asked whether the contract could be extended to May 12 given uncertainty about whether a resolution would be ready in time
• The property is 5.7 acres on Columbia Avenue with a 20-foot grade drop from the street to the rear, which Cross noted sets up well for above-grade structured parking at roughly half the cost of underground
• Mayor Anderson noted the sale is being televised and there are other parties watching the property
• Cross confirmed a public-private partnership on the Hill site hasn't been formally proposed but thinks it's worth exploring — shared parking costs, shared land costs, and mixed uses could check boxes for both the county and the city; a full site study would be needed first

Rehab vs. new site

• Judge Tom Taylor is against spending any more money on rehab of the existing property, calling it "ten pounds of flour in a five-pound bag," and wants focus on location and acquisition
• Taylor also suggested the county look at property it already owns before pursuing acquisition
• Stuckey (Participant 8) thinks rehab should stay on the table and that there may be variations beyond what the 2020 plan considered; he also urged planning to 2070, not just 2050, potentially in phases
• Mayor Moore (Participant 15) suggested using a radius from the downtown square as a framework for evaluating how far from downtown a relocated courthouse should be
• Stuckey offered to present at the next meeting on the city's land use plan for the HD Hill property and the radius analysis the city used when evaluating city hall sites
• Commissioner Torres suggested the next meeting include stakeholder presentations (judges, sheriff, clerks, DA) on their macro needs to inform the rehab vs. new site decision
• Aiello confirmed the city of Franklin will also present their downtown vision at the next meeting
• Kevin Benson will resend the county-owned property inventory list to task force members ahead of the next meeting

Historic courthouse future use

• Mayor Anderson raised that under Tennessee code, county property falls under the mayor's authority except for the courthouse, which requires dual approval from the mayor and the sheriff
• Anderson recommended a title search on the historic courthouse to confirm ownership, noting the county has discovered title issues on other properties in the past
• Anderson is confident the historic courthouse will never be surplused — he sees it as too politically and historically significant — and suggested a long-term lease to a preservation group or potentially a trade/arrangement with the city as more realistic paths
• Heller (Participant 12) committed that his group (Franklin Preservation Partners, which has worked on 62 acres at the Maccatcher/Franklin Road junction) will evaluate the historic courthouse for adaptive reuse at no cost to the county, provided access is granted
• Heller's view is that the historic courthouse is one of the town's great treasures and that gutting it as part of a rehab would be unacceptable — it needs to be preserved in its pre-Civil War context
• Task force voted to formally engage Heller's group to conduct the assessment under a long-term lease (not sale) framework

Funding for design work

• Mayor Anderson asked the task force to recommend a dollar figure tonight so it can be included in a resolution before the commission's submission deadline
• Task force recommended $100K for use by either Gresham Smith or Jim Cross (on an hourly rate basis) to evaluate courthouse redesign or new construction design — scope to be defined by the task force at a later stage
• Judge Hood asked that the vote on the dollar amount be separated from committing to a specific scope, so funds aren't locked into studying a rehab option the commission may already be against — the motion was structured to keep scope flexible
• Cross confirmed $100K is likely adequate depending on scope, and committed to coming back with a defined scope and cost estimate before work begins

Next meeting date

• Next task force meeting set for April 27 at 5:30 PM in the auditorium
• Planned agenda items: stakeholder presentations (judges, sheriff, clerks, DA), city of Franklin downtown vision and HD Hill land use context, review of county-owned property inventory, and any motions requiring commission funding
