Jennings Bryan Loring (January 31, 1930 - September 27, 2014) was a member of the Metropolitan Council of Nashville and Davidson County, representing the 15th district. He was director of the Nashville Electric Service, and possessed both a Bachelor of Laws degree and a J.D. He campaigned for the position of Council Member-At-Large. He entered the September 11 run-off race as one of the top nine candidates out of a field of 26 on August 2. On August 28 at a forum for at-large city council candidates, at Benton Chapel on the campus of Vanderbilt University, J.B. Loring offered a plan for the former thermal transfer plant site. He suggested selling it to the highest bidder and building a multi-story parking garage with $2 parking. He was a lead sponsor of a bill that would have bolstered federal immigration laws prohibiting the city from contracting with companies that employ illegal aliens. Loring died September 27, 2014, at the age of 84 in Nashville. |
