Join Kosta and his guest: James Mills, City Manager for the City of Cookeville. In this episode: The City of Cookeville recently launched a new segment on social media called Cookeville Q&A: where residents can write in with their questions to city representatives.

As our current City Manager and former Planning Director, are you ever afraid this could all be too much of a good thing? The median sold home price for July 2025 in Cookeville was $362,000 according to the National Association of Realtors. On Zillow, in Cookeville there’s exactly 10 listings for homes under 200,000.

What can the city do to change this? Find out more about The City of Cookeville:https://www.cookeville-tn.gov/Better Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is a product of Morgan Franklin Media and recorded in Cookeville, TN.This episode of Better Together with Kosta Yepifantsev is made possible by our partners at Miss Sallie's Market.Find out more about Miss Sallie's Market:https://www.misssallies.com
