UPDATE: 5:01 p.m. Brian’s Blog was Right, Correct however you define accuracy. When others like tabloid girl, tabloid editor girl and the several posters over at the blog forum KnoxViews write it, it is not always accurate. However, when you read it at Brian’s Blog it is reliable and it is fair and balanced.

Original Post 5:56:00 a.m. Based on conversations with sources in and near Knox County Government Brian’s Blog is predicting that at today’s State of the Community address there will be NO property tax increase proposed.

The State of the Community will be held at 11:00 a.m. today in the Federal Courthouse Courtyard across Main Street from the City-County Building.

The funding of the budget without a tax increase will make Mayor Ragsdale a hero in spite of Trustee Sisk’s inability to play as a team member and part of an integral member of the greater team.

Trustee Sisk is holding out for the need to hire part timers for a supposedly Senior citizen tax freeze. The question is will he hire part-timers to fill in for his employees while they go out and raise campaign funds and campaign for their boss?

Just a question. Brian’s Blog doesn’t know the answer and is unwilling to attempt to answer it.
