KNOXVILLE, Tenn — So many things have looked different this year, and now that may include Halloween celebrations. 

The CDC and the Knox County Health Department released new guidelines about how to safely celebrate Halloween. They are meant to keep people safe while having fun.

In past years, Knoxville neighborhood Sequoyah Hills saw thousands of trick-or-treaters.

“I think last year we were told there were 2,000 – 3,000 children that showed up whether they lived here or not,” said neighbor Doug Peek. He said he knows his family won’t see that many kids this year.

The Knox County Board of Health met Wednesday after the Knox County Commission passes a resolution recommending limiting their power.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The Knox County Board of Health met on Wednesday to discuss their response to the spread of COVID-19 after officials reported a total of 10,255 cases in Knox County.

They discussed the county’s bar curfew, which requires all establishments offering on-premise consumption of alcoholic beverages or beer to close by 11 p.m.

Patrick O’Brien said that the curfew was originally supposed to last 28 days. So, he proposed a vote to extend it another 14 days to fulfill the original expectation of the order. He said that he hoped to be able to allow the curfew to expire at that time.

Members voted to continue the curfew, 7 – 1. Dianna Drake voted against the continuation.

Protesters gathered outside the City County Building’s large assembly room during the Knox County Commission meeting on Monday, September 28, 2020 in opposition to the Knox County Board of Health’s safety mandates for dealing with the coronavirus pandemic.

The commission would hear the remaining 20 or so speakers – adding another hour-plus to the meeting – but he’d prefer speakers consolidate their speeches to save time.

Someone from the crowded, unmasked balcony shouted, “You created this problem.”

And so it went.
