Matt Wiltshire for Health and Educational Facilities Board

This discussion topic was requested by Council Member Burkley Allen regarding the Health and Educational Facilities Board nominee Matt Wiltshire.

From CM Allen:

Dear Colleagues,

I am writing to ask for your support for Matt Wiltshire for Health and Education Facilities Board,   Matt has already served on this board, fulfilling an unexpired term. He understands the mission of the HEFB as it is spelled out in the Metro Code:  to issue revenue bonds and loan the proceeds to finance the acquisition, construction, development, rehabilitation, and improvement of health, educational, and multifamily housing facilities. The types of eligible projects and borrowers are determined by State statute and include hospitals, universities, non-profit schools, and multifamily housing developers.

Matt’s work experience with the Metro Development and Housing Agency (MDHA) and now with Pathway Lending has given him first-hand experience at understanding the complex financing involved in affordable housing finance, and the life changing outcomes from having good housing, healthcare, and educational opportunities.  During his campaign for Mayor, Matt focused heavily on education in Nashville and demonstrated his intimate knowledge of our local educational options and the importance of providing every student with a great education.

Matt is a dedicated servant for public good, and I would appreciate your consideration for this position.
