Another Exec­u­tive branch hope­ful. L.B. Steele is run­ning for Knox County Trustee.

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

I worked for the Knoxville Police Dept. for 13 years. I was elected to the Knoxville City Coun­cil for 4 years. I have retired from the Ten­nessee Depart­ment of Rev­enue after 20 years. I am a grad­u­ate of Wal­ters State Com­mu­nity Col­lege and Car­son New­man Col­lege. I have 20 years expe­ri­ence col­lect­ing delin­quent taxes that was due the State of Ten­nessee. I have a good record as being a good super­vi­sor at the Police Dept. and with the Ten­nessee Dept of Rev­enue. I fill that with my edu­ca­tion and my life expe­ri­ence is a great asset for me to bring the trust back to the trustees office. I’m a very hard worker, I did not go back to school until I had a fam­ily and worked full time.

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?

No answer reported.

3. What 5 things could you not live without?

GOD
FAMILY
FRIENDS
FREEDOM
