The following was part of an email last night from District 18 Metro Councilman Keith Durbin:
"Belmont Debate 2008 Neighborhood Update Meeting
- Thursday August 14
The presidential debate to be held at Belmont University is fast approaching. On Tuesday, October 7 the eyes of the world will be on Nashville. Many in the neighborhood have had questions as to how the debate will affect them. Earlier this spring a community meeting allowed neighbors to ask questions and Belmont staff to provide the answers they had at that time.
On Thursday, August 14 at 6:30 pm, we'll hold a second meeting to present the current event plans and allow the community to ask questions. The meeting will be held in the Curb Event Center Beaman Rooms A&B. All community members are invited.
Belmont has a site set up to provide information about the debate for the community: www.belmontdebate08.com."
It was announced Tuesday that former NBC anchor Tom Brokaw will moderate the town hall-style forum.
