Clarksville, TN – Clarksville Mayor Joe Pitts has called a special session on Tuesday, September 7th, 2021 to select a person to fill the vacant Ward 1 and Ward 5 seats. Each person applying for one of the open seats was provided 5 minutes to address the city council at our meeting.
Your voice matters and I would like to meet with members of the community. I was planning on hosting a Townhall but the increase in the COVID 19 Coronavirus has made this not possible. If you are hosting a neighborhood picnic or there is a gathering I would be happy to meet with residents to discuss your concerns or ideas for our community.
As always, please contact me if you have questions or concerns. I only answer calls that are in my contact list, please leave a message or send a quick text and I will call you back.
