Bill

Nashville currently charges a $6-per-ton solid waste generator fee on trash collected or produced here, but the rules are unclear about waste that originates elsewhere and is later dumped in Davidson County. This ordinance closes that gap by applying the same $6-per-ton fee to all waste disposed of in Davidson County, regardless of where it came from.
