He is excited about the prospect of new business, new housing and the opportunity to create a place in which the citizens of today and future generations of tomorrow can be proud. Abernathy strongly believes that determining and maintaining this quality of life is essential for every generation, not only to attract and maintain the jobs and personnel the city currently has, but to attract and increase the business opportunities for tomorrow.
