The meeting will start with oaths of office administered to firefighters Mike Afonso and Nicole Stanley, and mayoral readings of an ALS Awareness Month proclamation, a Mental Health Awareness Month Proclamation, a National Police Week Proclamation, and a Professional Municipal Clerk’s Week Proclamation.  

In new business the council will hold a public hearing and consider the sale of ten lots in the VA District to Origin, the purchase agreement, and a letter of support for the workforce housing tax credits.

The meeting will close with the council considering a lease agreement between the city and the Knoxville Senior Center, and the replacement of the Knoxville Recreation Center gymnasium heater.
