City Seeks Nominations for Good Neighbor of the Year

Each year, the City of Knoxville celebrates good neighbors with the Diana Conn Neighbor of the Year Award. (This award was named for the late Diana Conn -- pictured at right -- and was presented to her posthumously at the 2013 Neighborhood Conference.)

Nominations are now being accepted for this award, which is presented annually to a City of Knoxville resident who --- in a spirit of cooperation and with commitment to inclusive community --- has devoted time and talent in service to his or her neighbors and neighborhood. The deadline for nominations is Jan. 4, 2016.

A committee composed of members of the Mayor’s Neighborhood Advisory Council will select the winner, who (along with other finalists) will be announced at the 2016 Neighborhood Awards and Networking Luncheon on Saturday, March 5, 2016, at the Knoxville Convention Center.
