MUNICIPAL FINANCE CHALLENGES

AND POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS



Maria McHale, governmental affairs and policy director for East Tennessee REALTORS® (ETNR), said REALTORS® have a responsibility to understand the complex financing choices that local governments face and to help ensure those choices are made with balance and long-term vision in mind.

“Local elected officials work hard to balance growth and resident services, and beneficial development is often hindered by a lack of infrastructure funding,” McHale said.

“As REALTORS® advocate for smart growth, we can help educate communities on sustainable ways to fund and improve neighborhood infrastructure without putting an unfair financial burden on homeowners.”
