Will a proposal to change the structure of City Council make it more responsive and representative — or less? That's the question facing city voters in a referendum set for the November election, which would change all nine Council seats to at-large positions. In this week's episode, Scott and Jesse sort through the arguments for and against the change. Also: an update on the structural problems with the Gay Street Bridge; a new effort to make period products available in county schools; and money from the national opioid settlements starts to make its way to East Tennessee agencies and nonprofit organizations. The guys also look ahead to meetings this week of County Commission and City Council.
