Greenways Commission Reorganized

The City of Knoxville Greenways Commission, an advisory board to support implementation of the  Knoxville/Knox County Park, Recreation and Greenway Plan and advocate for greenways, has been reorganized. There are 12 community representatives, plus 8 appointed professional staff. 

Looking over each member's credentials, I can see a diversity of backgrounds and wisdom to bring to this advisory commission. I have the honor of representing the interests of District 4, which includes most of First Creek watershed, Love watershed, Woods, Whites Creek, and Holston River watershed in Knoxville.

I'm grateful to Nick Della Volpe, city council member for District 4, and Mayor Rogero, for the opportunity to serve.

I'll post more about myself soon.
