The holiday-shortened week ended with a bang last Thursday night when the Farragut Board of Mayor and Aldermen torpedoed County Mayor Glenn Jacobs' changes to the county growth plan. This week, Jesse and Scott look at the vote, the underlying politics, and what could happen next. Also, in the interview segment, they talk to state Sen. Becky Massey about a study that shows a need for new state mental health hospital in the Knoxville area. Plus: A low-barrier homeless shelter is closing because apparently nobody wants to run it; County Commission compromises on utility pole regulations; and the state Legislature is about to make you verify your age to use social media. The guys also look ahead to meetings this week of the Knox County school board and Knoxville City Council.
