Jay West Named as New COAT Director

Earlier this summer, the County Officials Association of Tennessee selected Jay West as the new executive director to succeed Marie Murphy. Marie left COAT to join the Department of Commerce and Insurance as Assistant Commissioner for Special Projects this past spring. Jay assumed his responsibilities this month. I look forward to working with him on issues common to our organizations. Jay has been a registered lobbyist on Capitol Hill for over 25 years and brings a wealth of experience to COAT. In addition, he is a former Councilman at Large and Vice Mayor of Metropolitan Nashville and Davidson County and even served as a member of the board of directors of this association (TCCA) during his tenure as an elected Davidson County official.

The County Officials Association of Tennessee represents the court clerks, county clerks, trustees and registers of deeds of Tennessee's 95 counties.
