JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

Council Member Thoughts on Their #1 Priority for 2008.


What do you think is the Scottsboro City Council's #1 priority for 2008? Council Member Josephine Smith's reply: "Take care of the citizens of Scottsboro, jobs for our citizens is a top priority." Ms. Smith went on to say this is not such an easy question as there are many important issues the council must decide, but good paying jobs for our families are very important. "We need to do all we can to bring industry and business into Scottsboro."



To view Josephine Smith's biography go to http://www.cityofscottsboro.com/ click on the Mayor/Council heading at top of the page, then click on the council members name. The biography sections of Scottsboro's web pages will not link.



Ms. Smith was appointed to the City Council Place 1 on Mar. 26, 2007, due to the resignation of Mr. Jim Helms who moved out of the City Limits. Place 1's position is up for election this year.
