What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Mayor Freddie O'Connell proposed several small business grants in Nashville, including a Legacy Business Grant, a construction reimbursement incentive, and a payroll grant. Manuel Delgado, who runs Delgado Guitars, stated that these incentives would not benefit his 98-year-old business. Delgado criticized the proposals, arguing they cater to larger, well-funded corporate companies.
