J. B. Loring
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.[1] 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.[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.[3] 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.[4]
Loring died September 27, 2014, at the age of 84 in Nashville.[5]
