Knoxville Mayor Rogero will unveil her proposed budget for the upcoming fiscal year and present her "state of the city" address noon Wednesday at Zoo Knoxville.

The event is open to the public.

According to a release:

"Hundreds of community and civic leaders will hear the Mayor’s plans for continuing to strengthen the local economy, enhance neighborhoods and quality of life, and ensure a greener, more sustainable future."

Parking will be available in the zoo parking lot (which will include designated ADA parking spaces), as well as the parking lots at Chilhowee Park & Exposition Center. Buses will be shuttling guests between the Chilhowee parking lots and the event venue.

Guests should come into Zoo Knoxville using a separate, clearly marked entrance designated for the State of the City Address. Staff will be on hand to direct guests. The State of the City Address will be held in a new Zoo Knoxville event space, near Kids Cove and the carousel. A light lunch will be served.

If you plan on attending, please call the City’s 311 Call Center to RSVP or to ask questions about logistics for the event.
