Island Matters
A facts-only,non-profit sourceof news for the IslandIsland Matters is your source for South Padre Island News. Our overarching vision for the City of South Padre Island is to have (1) 100% transparency in government and (2) a family-friendly environment for the Island. When one looks around the world, except for the Disney cities, every great tourist destination was first a great place to live for its residents. Island Matters supports the City of South Padre Island attracting young families and building a strong economy for the Island that is robust all 12 months of the year. Island Matters wants everyone who cares about our island, especially accountability on our island, to be a reader. As with any news organization, but especially with a non-profit news organization, there is a clear firewall between the organization's publishing (fundraising) side and the editorial side. Island Matters will continue to be a facts-only source of accountability in local government with all editorial decisions made by island residents. Our Strength is Our Membership! As a non-profit, our Members are our primary donors. Like any island non-profit, Island Matters depends on island residents and property owners to support government transparency and a family-friendly environment, by supporting hyper-local, fact-based, non-profit news. All our coverage is determined by island residents and property owners. Please support our efforts by being BOTH a subscriber (free) and a Member (donor). |
