OUR FLAGSHIP PROGRAM

CURRENT CLASS

To cultivate a safe, affordable, and fun Knoxville where permanent residents and economic drivers coexist, ensuring every person has space to live, thrive, and raise future generations.

The people! A perfect cross-section of America that is perfectly comfortable and make you feel like you belong.

Align City and County governments to lead strategic growth alongside small businesses, faith communities, and social agencies. Unifying local leadership must replace the 'City vs. County' divide so Knoxville can benchmark against peer cities and lead in Tennessee. To strengthen our economic engines, we must first stabilize local infrastructure and fix transit and parking bottlenecks at Food City Center and the Arena. Repairing our reputation for handling large events is essential to welcoming visitors, keeping locals happy, and supporting our existing venues.

Best advice from the same person (Irene Hanas): 1.) If it's not going to stop a war or save a life, don't stress about it. 2.) Everyone puts their pants on the same way ...one leg at a time.

Embrace your limitations--they will make you stronger. Be confident enough to do more sooner. You are not your parents/family.
