Nashville airport to be renamed after Dolly Parton in unanimous vote

–

Neutral summary

The Metro Nashville Airport Authority board voted 6-0 on Friday to begin renaming Nashville International Airport in honor of Dolly Parton, who died on August 25 at age 80 after a brief battle with cancer. A final name has not been chosen, and officials said the process could take a year or more, including work with Parton's estate. Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee proposed the change shortly after her death, and the authority called the vote the “first step in a multifaceted process.”
