   The Knox County Council is expected to wrap up work on the proposed 2019 budget tonight at the Knox County Courthouse. Tonight’s session will be the last of three Council meetings to hear budget requests.  The County Council is then expected to set the County’s actual budget for next year. Members say they are looking at a budget in the neighborhood of 14 million dollars. Last night, Council members approved $688,000 for work on the Old U-S 41 bridge replacement south of Oaktown and $195,000 for the bridge on Freelandville Road.
