At yesterday’s Knox County Commission meeting during the discussion about the East County Sector Plan. County Commissioner Ed Shouse said that one factor in his vote on the Midway Business Park was that he is opposed to “urban sprawl”. Do what? There wasn’t an annexation that Shouse as City Councilman Shouse didn’t oppose. Annexation is the #1 factor in creating urban sprawl. Come on Commissioner, where you for urban sprawl as an annexing City Councilman before you are against it as a County Commissioner? We really can’t afford to have more than Mike Hammond and Robert Lawrence Smith as the grand standers.
