District 11

 

A New District

In 2021, the Washington County Commission approved a re-districting plan for the County.  The boundaries of the new districts go into effect after the August 4, 2022 election.  The new plan includes 15 districts with one County Commissioner from each.

Boundaries

After August 4, 2022, District 11 will include the South Side Neighborhood, otherwise known as the Tree Streets, bounded by University Parkway, State of Franklin Road, and South Roan Street.  It will no longer include the “East Tree Streets,” Keystone community as it did during my first term. Rather, it will include the neighborhood from downtown at Roan Street west along Highland Avenue, Lamont Street, and Hamilton Street.

Voting Precincts

The Voting Precinct for District 11 is South Side School. You can view a tentative draft of the precinct plan for the August 4, 2022 election (and primary) here.

Character

Like similar districts in the downtown area (e.g., 9 and 10), District 11 is comprised of citizens who represent significant diversity across a range of characteristics including: economic, race and ethnic background, religion, and family status. Unlike any other District, however, District 11 includes many ETSU students as residents as well as the historic Tree Streets neighborhood, which is the second largest historic neighborhood in the State of Tennessee.
