City or Town?
The county seat of Ashe, Jefferson is indeed considered a town. This county seat was founded in 1799. It's legislature is considered to be commission and the town manager is Cathy Howell. We can't find pictures of her, but not all heroes are public!
Our county manager deserves some respect as well, Adam Stumb. He works so well managing the affairs in our county. Maybe pay him a visit if he's not too busy!
