The Farragut Board of Aldermen's whiplash-inducing reversals on the Knox County growth plan fueled local political drama last week. It leads off this week's episode as Jesse and Scott talk through the different parties and pressures brought to bear on the usually overlooked town legislature. Also: TDOT's big I-40 announcement; Knox County Schools wrestles with objections to library materials; and GOP opposition to state Rep. Gloria Johnson's reelection campaign evaporates. In the interview segment, the guys talk with Deborah Fisher of the Tennessee Coalition for Open Government about the controversies and complexities of public comment at public meetings. They also look ahead to a host of meetings next week, including yet another moment in the spotlight for the Farragut BOMA. And they hear from special guest/show producer Lord Seth Barber about the plans for the upcoming Holleroo celebration in Happy Holler. CompassKnox.com
