Should County Commission rezone property against the property owners' wishes? That was the question raised last week by new County Commissioner Andy Fox. His attempt to put a proposal to downzone multiple properties in South Knox County did not make it onto the agenda of this month's zoning meeting, but he can bring it back next month. Flying solo on this week's episode, Jesse breaks down Fox's unprecedented effort. Also: City Council denies a last-ditch effort to block a new riverfront high-rise; an $850,000 contract to assess the damage and needed repairs to the Gay Street Bridge; and Congressman Tim Burchett has another colorful week. Looking ahead, Jesse previews meetings this week of County Commission and the Knoxville Transportation Authority board — which is considering a move to totally cashless payments. Compassknox.com
