letters to the editor

I hope everyone will vote for Angela Russell for District Five Knox County Commission. I think she is the best:

• Graduated with highest honors from the University of Tennessee in Accounting. Obtained Tennessee State Board of Accountancy Certified Public Accountant. This equips her to understand accounting, budgets and financial management.

• Tennessee Real Estate Appraiser Commission Certified General Real Estate Appraiser. Obtained Appraisal Institute MAI designation. This gives her a better understanding of real estate, its development and its effect on our community.

• Employment experience in public accounting, private business accounting and management and real estate appraising.

• Numerous terms on subdivision HOAs & a founding member of the Northshore-Choto HOAs group. The Northshore-Choto HOAs group was formed to address road safety, lack of infrastructure and concerns about high density changing the character of our community. 

• History of advocating for better roads. 

• History of advocating for responsible development. Proven leadership & effective results in opposing Choto Landing, a proposed high-density government subsidized development. She helped author the proposed Choto Landing development opposition website (see link), raise legal funds, make phone calls, put up signage, organize multiple community meetings and she served as legal counsel point-person. https://www.chotolanding.com
