Our 24/7 Comment Policy For All to Read and Abide By!

Here's a brief summary of our 24/7 COMMENT POLICY that we have been using from our very first day of publication. Everyone needs to read it and understand why all of us need to abide by and follow these guidelines.

The sole purpose of this website is to distribute the accurate facts about issues and problems our formerly small town is facing. As of today, we know some 12,500 people are closely reading each post and encouraging us to keep up the good work reporting on town hall meetings and issues that affect everyone in the greater Nolensville area.

Over the past 10 years or so much very good work has been done by volunteers and part time citizens serving under the hard working leadership of our Mayor...Mr. Charles Knapper.

Our goal is to report on all of the efforts of our city leaders and commissions to keep pace with the extraordinary growth of Nolensville. No doubt the pressures of such instant growth creates conflicts and mistakes. It is important to keep our collective attentions on the issues. Together we can achieve outstanding progress using everyone's talents.

Our webmaster and staff want to serve the community in a positive manner so we cannot accept and tolerate comments that are nothing more than personal attacks intended to bring harm and a negative atmosphere to all who read it. Therefore, we have had to DELETE several recent comments of this nature. We will continue to monitor all incoming comments (as we have) so that the overall tone of comments continue to be positive.

Nevertheless, please understand that reporting on public meetings may include situations that represent a differance of opinions and some increased level of a anxiety. In these cases we will strive to accurately report the discussions and decisions as they happened.

Your comment and input are encouraged and welcomed. Please continue to give us your valuable insight and positive suggestions. Progress in local governments can be stressful and sometimes messy even when we concentrate on the issues.

The future is bright and filled with great opportunities for Nolensville if work together. Email your comments or click on comments on each post.

Appreciate your quick solution to a couple of comments that seemed to be way out of line. Please continue to report and help all of us locally to understand what is really happening. Nobody has time to keep track of all the developments. Please stay online.
