Correction: A quote by Robert Petrone about growth in Chattanooga compared to Knoxville was misattributed to Elizabeth Murphy. Additionally, Murphy is not a lobbyist.
The city of Knoxville’s potential to lag behind in population growth compared to Chattanooga and Knoxville s property tax rate are behind some candidates challenging incumbents in this year’s Knoxville City Council races.
Their supporters are citing the same reasons for making changes in Districts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6, where incumbents are seeking a second term in the nonpartisan election.
The primary is on Aug. 31 and the general election is on Nov. 2. In the primary, voters will vote only in the districts where they live, but in the general election, voters can vote in all the district races.
