For the citizens of Abingdon, VA. Let us know what's on your mind. We'll do the same. This is NOT an official town gov account.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 @Kcraigoo3 Ok, but you don’t get to hold closed meetings AND claim transparency. It’s one or the other.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

Good advice here. Agreed. https://t.co/ZloUe7n1ny

[KCraig @Kcraigoo3]

@abingdonva @clowe158 so promote the good things in #Abingdonva , run for council, change what needs changing. representative republic is just that, elect folks to represent our best interest, Everyone's not just yours.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@Kcraigoo3 @clowe158 Not at all. But trying and succeeding are two different things. Happy to disagree but pretending all is well in Abingdon gov is not credible

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@Kcraigoo3 @clowe158 Twitter accounts are only allowed to run for president.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@Kcraigoo3 @clowe158 They have filed an appeal which is pending. Lawyers cost $ so better save that shiny nickel for when the taxpayers have to pay up.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@Kcraigoo3 @clowe158 Um, yes. Three Council members were sued for meeting in violation of state law. They lost the case and were fined by the judge for actions.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 @Kcraigoo3 Town Council holds closed sessions and illegal secret meetings but a random twitter account is the problem....riiiiiight.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 Nellie Bly worked to uncover a corrupt mental health system that shunned transparency and public accountability. Sounds familiar.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 Don’t have any. Your turn.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 If you are really interested in transparency, will you commit to eliminating closed session Council discussions? #letthesunshinein

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

Soooo...Town Council kills a tourism initiative for economic development but green-lights a lawsuit appeal. #priorities

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 The difference between "accommodation" and a commendation. Hopefully, both boost tax revenues in our tourism-based town.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

Town Council votes to eliminate their work session. The minutes will not reflect the irony.

Nice piece about Abingdon in the latest edition of @ChattMag

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

Bristol's borrowing for The Falls is unconnected to their financial alarm from the state. And our debt for sports fields is a great idea.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@BHCSashaVGF @clowe158 Yeah. Good luck with that.

[abingdonva @abingdonva]

@clowe158 Never claimed to be OFFICIAL. And FOA can speak for themselves.
