Honor Guard raising funds Honors, tax break and growth plan on commission agenda By Mike Steely [email protected]

The Knox County Commission faces a fairly long agenda when it meets in Work Session on Monday, October 21. Agenda items to be discussed in that meeting will be chosen by the chairman and each commissioner may also add items or select agenda items for public discussion. Among the items that will probably be passed along to the regular meeting are honors for retir- ing E-911 Board Director Alan Bull. Ironically Commissioner Brad Anders is sponsoring the honors and Anders has been named as Bull’s replacement. Ott Defoe may be honored for winning the 2019 Bassmaster’s Classic. Two new ethics commit- tee members may be named and the sheriff may name his one ethics member. The Volunteer Ministry Center may be given $50,000 for the low barrier night shelter for the homeless.
