Westin Hotel public hearing tonight (Jan. 2)

The Metro Council will hold a public hearing tonight (January 2) at 7 p.m. regarding the proposed Westin Hotel on Lower Broadway downtown. As many of you know, this development has been controversial during the past several months. Tonight's forum will provide an opportunity for local citizens to voice their opinions about the hotel project.

If you are interested in learning more about this issue, The Tennessean and the City Paper have reported frequently on it in the last few days:

The City Paper: Today, Dec. 29
The Tennessean: Dec. 29, Dec. 28, Dec. 27

[Note: In the interest of full disclosure, my employer is providing public relations counsel on behalf of the hotel developer. I am not engaged in this effort and have included this post solely at the request of a neighborhood resident because of its significance for the city.]
