My name is Allen Pilkington and I have acquired the Tarrant Tattler.

My goal for this page is simple, I want to keep citizens informed of everything that is happening in Tarrant with coverage that is as even handed as possible.

This is a new Tattler that seeks to inform not only on what happens at city council meetings, but to shine light on community events, milestones and successes.

I couldn’t get a chance to serve my community via elected office, but I hope that I can turn the Tarrant Tattler into a positive outlet to serve our city into our shared future.

I understand that people may have feelings about the old Tattler, but my goal is to prove that our motivations are sound and in the interest for a better city for everyone that lives here
