Dis­trict 4 has a good pool of can­di­dates to choose from includ­ing Logan Brum­mitt. He will be run­ning for Knox County Com­mis­sioner Seat 4B.

1. Intro­duce your­self to Knoxville, who are you, and why are you running?

Logan Brummitt My name is Logan Brum­mitt and I am 29 years old. I am an Insur­ance Agent here in town work­ing for Asso­ci­ated Insurors in Franklin Square. I was born, raised and have spent the major­ity of my life in Knox County. I grad­u­ated from Far­ragut High School in 1996. In col­lege, I went to Cleve­land State Com­mu­nity Col­lege for 2 years on an aca­d­e­mic schol­ar­ship, grad­u­at­ing with my Asso­ciates Degree while play­ing base­ball there too. After CSCC, I trans­ferred to The Uni­ver­sity of Ten­nessee to play base­ball. I played 2 years at UT and fin­ished by grad­u­at­ing in Decem­ber of 2000 with a B.S. in Finance. I am now a mem­ber of the UT Letterman’s club and I am on the board for the Young Pro­fes­sional Lead­er­ship Com­mit­tee. The YPLC helps bring young pro­fes­sion­als in Knoxville together while rais­ing money for Cys­tic Fibro­sis. I pas­sion­ately believe that local gov­ern­ment is the purest of form of pol­i­tics in which it does not mat­ter what party affil­i­a­tion you have. What mat­ters is the com­mon goal to make Knox County the best it can pos­si­bly be.

2. We think it’s bet­ter know­ing what not to do rather than hav­ing an exten­sive plan. What areas or inter­ests would ben­e­fit Knox County not to ven­ture into?

I think any­thing that would increase our gen­eral debt. We need to do a bet­ter job of review­ing and audit­ing our offices so that we can either elim­i­nate or con­sol­i­date wasted money.

3. What 5 things could you not live without?

1. My fam­ily
2. My friends
3. My cell phone
4. A good cup of cof­fee
5. A pro­gres­sive Knoxville and Knox County that is get­ting the sup­port of the younger gen­er­a­tion, like myself.
