Daniel Berry brings prior alderman experience, private-sector management experience in global healthcare and information technology, and the kind of financial discipline local government should have used all along.
He served two terms on the Board of Mayor and Aldermen from 2019 through 2024, so he knows how Tullahoma government operates and where it falls short.
He pushed for a long-term road maintenance schedule with funding behind it and for long-term funding plans before new infrastructure or equipment purchases move forward.
He opposed efforts to build DEI bureaucracy into city government and supported a non-sanctuary city policy that reinforced cooperation with federal immigration enforcement.
