Thanks for doing this. Great job. My only disappointment is that neither candidate said anything about putting the reins on the aggressive panhandling that is getting worse downtown. I live and own a business downtown. And I have been embarrassed to have guests at my home and my office who have to put up with the panhandling. One friend in the media who recently moved here said it is worse here than anywhere she's ever lived. And she's lived from California to Mississippi to Florida. I think the panhandling will hold Knoxville back from being livable, walkable, runnable and bike-able. And, by the way, these are not necessarily homeless folks. Some are professional panhandlers. I recognize them and their stories, which I have heard repeatedly in many variations. But, again, thanks.cmmoxleyhttp://www.moxleycarmichael.comnoreply@blogger.com
