Murfreesboro City Councilman Ron Washington was elected to the board of directors of the Tennessee Municipal League (TML) during its annual conference recently held in Murfreesboro. 

   Washington was nominated as a director at large by a six-member nominating committee composed of municipal officials statewide. He was then elected for a one-year term by a majority vote of the entire membership. 

   Washington will propose and help determine legislation municipalities need passed into law and will establish policy priorities for the League. 

   Other board elections include three vice presidents: Portland Mayor Ken Wilber, Humboldt Mayor Allen Barker, and Cleveland    Councilmember David May. TML vice presidents are traditionally in line to serve as president.
