QUESTION OF THE WEEK: Why does the city not allow comments on social media posts?
The City of Glasgow has chosen to limit comments on our social media pages in order to maintain a respectful, inclusive space for sharing important information. While social media is a helpful tool for communication, it also presents challenges—particularly around misinformation & inappropriate content.
Rather than moderating every individual comment—which can be subjective and sometimes controversial—we’ve found that turning off comments helps ensure our messages are communicated clearly, accurately, and consistently.
That doesn’t mean we don’t want to hear from you. In fact, we welcome questions and feedback through more direct channels where meaningful conversation can happen. Residents are encouraged to reach out by phone, email, or through the City’s website to connect with the appropriate person and receive a timely response.
We’re here to serve—and we want every voice to be heard in a space where respectful, thoughtful dialogue can truly happen.
The City also follows clear social media and public record guidelines & laws set by the state of Kentucky:
- Comments can only be removed if they violate posted guidelines
- All removed comments are archived by the City Clerk for one year, per Kentucky’s Open Records Law
- All records are maintained and accessible through Open Records Requests
You can also contact your City Council members directly—they are accessible and committed to listening. Their contact information is available HERE.
Our goal is simple: to keep the community informed in a way that is respectful, transparent, and compliant with the law.
If anyone has a question, comment or concern, call us 270-651-5131 or email me, the
Mayor or any council member! We will get the answer and respond.
