CLARKSVILLE, TN (CLARKSVILLE NOW) – The director of a local government agency was fired in Clarksville after complaints led to an internal investigation, and two weeks later, taxpayers are still in the dark about why.
The secrecy surrounding the investigation and the discussion of it could be in violation of Tennessee laws surrounding open meetings and public records. And one member of the Industrial Development Board has resigned in protest of the way the matter was handled.
Director’s firing
Frank Tate was terminated from his role as executive director of the Clarksville-Montgomery County IDB during an Economic Development Council meeting on April 28.

David Buck Dellinger is returning to the Clarksville area as CEO of the Clarksville-Montgomery County Economic Development Council.
Dellinger was named to the position Thursday afternoon in a special-called board of directors meeting, a move which ended a troubling two weeks for the county’s leaders in economic and industrial development.
Dellinger served in the U.S. Army from 1988-2017, including as garrison commander of Fort Campbell (2012-15). I think he s very qualified and has a lot of experience, said EDC Board chairperson Suzanne Langford. That was one of the things that set him apart.
EDC officials said Dellinger was selected from among 74 applicants after a nationwide search. He replaces former EDC CEO Jeff Truitt in the role.
