Now that we know Costco is planning to open in Clarksville, let's talk about what it took to get them here and what's in it for us. Also, city government is dealing with all the drama, from an Ajax Turner Senior Center lawsuit to capital project cuts and a fight over sales tax going to schools. When can it get boring again? Plus, a look inside the soon-to-open car and motorcycle museum.

Four months after a teacher admitted showing nude selfies to a student, charges have been filed. Here's a stab at understanding why it took so long, why there are four counts, and why they are misdemeanor charges. Also, who raised the most money in the county mayor and sheriff races, how the mayor candidates would handle paying the costs of growth, Marsha Blackburn's trip to Clarksville, and Ryan breaks down the KPop craze.

Here's what we know about the K-9 involved arrest, the warrants that led to it, and then the death of Darius Chappell in Montgomery County Jail. But what we don't know is Chappell's cause of death, and that's becoming a bigger problem the longer it's kept hidden from the public. Also, how a pair of Fort Campbell soldiers took down a drunk man with a gun, Wilma's going to get busy before it gets better, a new restaurant at Exit 8, and Ryan's hot take on what's wrong with J.J. Abrams' "Star Trek."

If you're confused about what's going on with the city's move to take over the Ajax Turner Senior Center, you aren't alone. Here's an attempted explanation, and odds on what happens next. Plus, the council tries again to pass a budget with or without a tax hike, looking back at Clarksville's history through pictures - rotten teeth and all, and what should be done about neighborhood fireworks madness.

Families of kids hurt in the school bus crash are lashing out at the School Board. But there's a better place to direct that grief and anger: our state legislature (the one that limited their financial compensation). Also, the City Council can't land on a budget they like, we lay odds on what major retailer is coming to Tiny Town Road, the Traveling Wilburys bail out Clarksville veterans, and Ryan is totally done with Elmo.

The great mysteries of our age: 1. Clarksville Fire Rescue responds to fires outside the city limits, but county taxes don't support CFR. 2. The city wants to pay more to take over the Ajax Turner Senior Center, despite that the city has a revenue crisis. 3. The state has a law that small contractors have to be licensed, but Montgomery County hasn't opted in. Can someone make it all make sense?

A Clarksville man has been recording himself taunting Black people with racial slurs. This week, a confrontation ended in gunfire. Here's what led up to it and what happens next. Plus, a look into the disciplinary records of sheriff candidates, Ascension Saint Thomas seeks help building a massive medical campus, whining over Wawa, and Chris has a plan to replace Smart Glasses with Smart Braces.

Mayor Joe Pitts dropped some bombshells in the last week, with a proposed 31-cent property tax increase and a pullback of $3.5 million in sales tax revenue from schools. What's going on, why the surprises, and why isn't the city collaborating with other government agencies? Also, how to get rid of this political gerrymandering BS, and what you'll see on Ryan's love pants.
