157 Timothy SmithI find this a ridiculous way to be spending our tax money! The City of Abilene should be creative enough to come up with their own slogan instead of paying big bucks to an outside consulting firm. "Abilene Frontiering" is not an improvement, nor will it improve our city in any way.
158 M. StricklandSince I am about to be a first time home owner in Abilene, I resent the fact that my hard earned money paid in taxes to this city will go to such a useless expenditure as city rebranding.
159 Robert MartinIts hard for me to imagine spending over a hundred thousand dollars on re-branding Abilene, with a total cost of over four hundred thousand at completion. Then to see all we got for the money was going from friendly frontier to Frontiering? Are you kidding me! Leave it the friendly frontier and save the money. Put the money in our education system, no one outside of Abilene really cares what our nickname is anyway.

163 Heidi CollettI with my email, this change is not going to make Abilene better.
164 Ladean Smith
165 Gina GardinerThis is absurd, such money wasted.
166 Shannon Keesee
167 Andrew C BarkerI agree that this was needless and our tax dollars wasted. Over half a million dollars on this campaign is crazy, when this money can be spent on fixing up the north side of town.
168 Scott WashburnLMAO Ridiculous
169 Daniel Salsman
170 Jim Mitchell
171 Connie Hilliard
172 J.D. Payne
173 Shawn RichardsonThis is a horrible use of taxpayer money. A junior high school class could have done better in my opinion. This should have been and should be in the future voted on by the citizens.

177 Dan LippincottI believe that the city business manager has better use of the money. They want to spend money on this when they can not pay the city workers a living wage. Not taking care of the people who live and work here, by saying there is not enough money has some issues about not always telling the truth!!!

180 Margie RoyallThe Bonham 5th graders did a much better job. Branding is for an immediate perception and all Frontiering does is create an immediate thougt of confusion and furrowed brows.....Makes me wonder why some people would actually spend 6 figures on something our own citizens could do a much better job!
181 Leslie KastnerWhat happened to "The friendly frontier?" Isnt that what we voted on? Why would the city spend so much money on such a silly change?

185 AnonymousI am apalled that this advertising campaign has cost so much, especially without the consent of the citizens of Abilene. Any further spending on this campaign should be halted.

192 Gary TruittThese kinds of expenditures should be voted on in the future
193 william walters jrreally $130,000 to come up with a name like frontering!
194 Barry D. WilliamsWe appreciate this leadership, but you better get ready for something stronger, like recalls and a new election, because the arrogance, conceit and confidence in themselves and in the consultants and the slogan has created a blackout. They cannot see or hear us!
195 Carla Sims
196 Aimee E. WilliamsThe new brand has been very successful! It has united us behind Friendly Frontier and made it look much better than before.
197 Bill CarterEnd the branding. Say no to "frontiering".

199 Jerry ReedWhomever was responsible should pay the taxpayers back every dime for this ridiculous slogan.
200 JohnWe should have "bought Big Country first". There are plenty of graphic design students that would have eagerly competed for the opportunity to create a brand for our city. They competition would have brought forward many ideas - at little to no cost.
