This week Jesse and Scott take a look at two contested races in the City of Knoxville primary: the fascinating three-way contest for At-Large Seat C, and the unexpectedly competitive race for municipal judge.
They also review U.S. Rep. Tim Burchett's week of advocacy for UFO disclosure, changes to Knoxville development rules and a lawsuit filed by teachers against the state's "prohibited concepts" law. The interview this week is with Chris Thomas, chief administrative officer for the Knox County Regional Forensic Center, who discusses trends in drug-related deaths and suicides. And in the reader Q&A, what's the future of the free downtown trolleys?
Finally, they look ahead to a forum among mayoral candidates next week, and a joint meeting of City Council and County Commission on mental health services.
