Also at the Sept. 8 meeting Mayor Mary Capra announced the city’s second online undertaking: Centerville has joined the social networking site Twitter. This means that residents can now receive short – 140 characters or less – news updates directly from the city. “It’s a way of getting a message out to people in rapid fashion [and] it’s free,” Capra said. Twitter also allows users to get updates sent directly to their cell phones. To join, Twitter fans can sign up at Twitter. com and follow CentervilleMN.

This is an interesting development coming from a Mayor that states she doesn't blog. Mary Capra is now going to support Twitter? Really?
So far there are two followers to the City Twitter account CentervilleMN . Council Member Ben Fehrenbacher and CentervilleBlog. That's right... We just opened a Twitter account today to keep an eye on them.
Remember to play nice everyone!

So..............
has Capra or Centerville tweeted about the election results for the city? As Capra stated, "It's a way of getting a message out to people in rapid fashion...." So then, was there a quick update tweeted?
Capra is now gone. Why dont you update this blog with current information? If you were smart you would still be suspicious of the current council. There is a lot of wasteful spending and not is the time to be more diligent than ever. Many of the council members cannot be trusted. Please update the blog. The current council is a sharade.
