Terry Frank elected president of Tennessee county mayors group
Terry Frank
The election was held during a board meeting at the annual fall conference of the Tennessee County Services Association.
While Frank was elected to serve as president, Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden was elected first-vice-president; Decatur County Mayor Mike Creasy was elected second-vice-president; and Cumberland County Mayor Allen Foster was elected as secretary.
“I am very grateful and humbled to be elected to serve by some incredible mayors and executives,” Frank said. “Tennessee is blessed with very hard-working and caring mayors and executives, and I truly love working on the issues that matter to local government.
“Our entire system of government is important, but because local government is so close to people on a day-to-day basis, it holds a very special place in my heart,” she said.
Past-President Mayor Jake Bynum stepped down as county mayor in Weakley County to serve in a new role at the University of Tennessee Martin in May 2024.
At that time, Frank was elected to serve the remainder of his unexpired term.
With the new election, along with Golden, Creasy, and Foster, she will serve a one-year term.
