Knox Charter Petition Group's Donor List...Not Exactly The Public

At yesterday's County Commission workshop. The Knox Charter Petition Group after being asked turned over their donor list. Gary Drinnen, Kathy Hamilton and Lurens Tullock could not identify who Strategic Partners were. It is hard to imagine that they would not know who gave 10% of their income, but that is what they said.

The group announced yesterday that one of their committee members, Brian Paone has resigned from the group.

Are these members not the public? Is the definiton of public based on money, or lack thereof?
