Rules

Okay, folks, this blog will be a good opportunity for me to communicate directly with my fellow residents about what the City of Chico has going on, but to keep this clean and fair, there are going to be a few rules.

First of all, I will be moderating every single comment that gets posted. What that means is that before anyone else sees a comment, I get the opportunity to approve or reject it.

Why would I reject a comment? Well, if it's slanderous, obscene, inflammatory, inappropriate, etc., you can pretty much bet that it will be rejected. This is not a place for you to tear down or insult other people or organizations. If you have complaints about something, feel free to e-mail me at jdclark.tx@gmail.com. Don't just anonymously post a negative comment.

Another rule...keep your comments relevant. This blog, like I previously stated, is focused on Chico, and as mayor pro tem, I feel it is a good opportunity for me to spread news about our city. This is not the place to discuss what is going on in other parts of the county; if you are looking for a Wise County blog, there is a great one over at http://www.skattershooting.blogspot.com/.

As you can see, there aren't a lot of rules, but I will be sticking closely to the ones I mentioned. The main thing is to keep this blog clean. I will not tolerate any character attacks nor will I publish anything that is not a verifiable fact. That means this is not the place to start or spread any rumors.

If you are wanting to tear down members of the community or spread gossip, then this obviously isn't the blog for you. However, if you would like to come check in every once in a while with what your local city government has been up to, come by anytime.

Also, if your community organization has an event or fundraiser coming up, e-mail it to me, and I'll review it, verify the info, and publish it on here.
