| Info | David Tandy was unanimously elected President of the Metro Council on January 8th, 2009. It was the first time since the first year of merged government that a President was elected unanimously. President Tandy deeply appreciates the support of his colleagues and the residents of the Fourth Metro Council District. Tandy began his service as Councilman on April 14th, 2005 following the passing of Councilman Willie Bright. He was re-elected in November of 2008 and has dedicated his public service to a renewed hope, dedication, and vision for the people of the Fourth District and entire community he cares deeply about.
Professionally, Councilman Tandy serves as an attorney for the firm of Stoll-Keenon-Ogden, which draws its strength from the history of two prominent Kentucky law firms: Stoll, Keenon & Park, LLP and Ogden Newell & Welch PLLC. The firms merged in early 2006 to form a comprehensive, statewide law firm with offices in Louisville, Lexington, Frankfort, and Henderson.
Previously, he served as the Government Relations Director for the American Cancer Society, Mid-South Division, Inc. and has practiced law with the firms of Sheffer-Hutchinson-Kinney and Woodward, Hobson, & Fulton in Kentucky; Ortale, Kelley, Herbert, & Crawford in Nashville, Tennessee; and worked in the Washington D.C. Office of former United States Senator Wendell H. Ford.
Councilman Tandy's community involvement includes having served as an Executive Board Member of the Louisville Branch NAACP Executive Committee and the State YMCA of Kentucky-Youth Association. In addition he is a former Board Member of the Louisville Metro Police Merit Review Board and the Louisville Metro Parks Advisory Commission. Councilman Tandy also served as the first President of the Louisville Urban League Young Professionals Organization.
His political experience includes currently serving as the Treasurer for the Kentucky Democratic Party, where in 2000 he became the youngest person and only the second African-American ever to serve his party as a state official.
Councilman Tandy has also served as an advisor to numerous campaigns and organizations. His wife, Carolyn, serves as District Director for Congressman John Yarmuth. They live in the Russell Neighborhood, and have two daughters and a son.
The Fourth District includes the Downtown-Central Business District, and the neighborhoods of Butchertown, California, Germantown, Irish Hill, Meriwether, Original Highlands, Paristown Pointe, Phoenix Hill, Portland, Russell, Shelby Park and Smoketown.
