CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – Brian Zacharias, Clarksville mayor pro tem and City Council representative for Ward 1, has announced his candidacy for mayor.
An Army veteran, public school educator and public servant, Zacharias said his campaign will focus on smart growth, traffic and transportation, neighborhood connectivity, and keeping Clarksville livable and affordable for working families.
“Clarksville deserves leadership that listens and leads with integrity,” Zacharias said. ”Our city’s growth has been historic. We all feel it on our roads, in our schools, and in our neighborhoods. The real question now is whether we are going to keep reacting to growth, or finally get ahead of it.
