Knox County has spent two years and $1.2 million on Advance Knox, a two-part plan to guide the county's projected growth over the next 20 years. It's going to be explosive and county officials say current infrastructure isn't adequate. Weeks away from the finish line, a municipality Advance Knox doesn't touch nearly torpedoed the entire thing. It set up a week long political back-and-forth that resulted in one lawmaker rescinding his vote against Advance Knox and flipping to support it. Now, the second part of the plan has just one more vote from the Knox County Commission. They're expected to pass it, but not without some debate over amendments. After that, Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs and his staff will surely be relieved. Advance Knox has been around for two years but many Knox Countians only learned about it since it made headlines recently. That's where Knoxville News Sentinel comes in. My colleague Silas Sloan reported on it from the start, and I was brought in as politics came more and more into play. Together, we produced 13 stories in less than three weeks after things went awry to inform readers and help them understand complex proceedings. It's collaborative reporting like this that makes me so proud to be a journalist at Knox News. I utilized my source relationships with Knox County lawmakers and my colleague utilized his wealth of Advance Knox knowledge and relationship with Knox County planners. Without one or the other, our stories wouldn't have been as impactful or served readers as well. Thanks to the help of our editors, Joel Christopher, Sarah Riley and Brenna McDermott, we reached tens of thousands of readers with in-depth reporting. We didn't just report what happened -- we got ahead of issues and used those relationships and context to show the bigger picture. Here are some of those stories (with an story predicting how things could go wrong published beforehand, at the top 😀 ): https://lnkd.in/efpRCSeN https://lnkd.in/evzxP7-v https://lnkd.in/eXiXXuUe https://lnkd.in/ebpfpBK2 https://lnkd.in/esgkAAXN https://lnkd.in/e2as89ce https://lnkd.in/ebpTeeEz

Knoxville News Sentinel covered an insightful story that highlighted the benefits of the economic development of local #blackbusinesses A #100knox alumni, Jackie Holloway, highlights the benefits that the program had on her business development and overall nonprofit. “The 100Knoxville program gave her access to networking opportunities that have helped grow the nonprofit. Holloway’s training is in business, and she said she didn’t have all the skills necessary to run a nonprofit. Through 100Knoxville, Canvas Can Do Miracles has been able to hire a grant writer.” We are proud of all our alumni! Thank you again to the Knoxville News Sentinel for covering an insightful story on the importance of growing black Knoxville businesses. #knoxnews #knoxvillenewssentinel #knox #knoxville #100knoxville #blackownedbusiness #blackbusinessowner #blackinbusiness
