The City does not agree with or endorse every comment that individuals post on our pages. Our goal is to share ideas and information widely, and our policy is to accept the majority of comments made to our profile.

Social media is a 24/7 medium; however, our moderation capabilities are not. We may not see every inappropriate comment right away, and we are trusting in the maturity of our community to ignore personal attacks and negative speech or respond politely.
