Why this matters in The Nashville

The recent flooding incidents in Mt. Juliet are a concern for the entire Nashville area, given the region's history of severe weather events. As emergency personnel in Mt. Juliet dealt with 15 flooding incidents on the roads, it's clear that the community's infrastructure was put to the test.
