The highest salary funded by Metro Nashville Taxpayers?

If you look at the 2008 Tennessean salary database for Metro Nashville it was $257,421.

However, last October News Channel 5 Investigates found the President of the Nashville Convention and Visitors Bureau makes about $400,000. Most of the budget of the CVB comes from Metro taxpayers.

Could be worse...the tourism guy in LA makes half a mil.
