Welcome to my home on the web
|
Hello, my name is Nathan Martin and I'm the City Councilman for
Pineville's District 5. I've designed this web
site to tell you a bit about me and to hear from residents of
District 5 as to your concerns. I hope you'll explore the various
pages of this site and get to know me and my family a little
better. And please use my feedback page
to let me know how the City of Pineville can serve you better!
I've been a resident of Pineville for most of my life as my family
moved back to Pineville when I was in the 8th grade. (My dad was
born in Pineville and our line of Martins has been in Central Louisiana since
before Louisiana was a state. The first Martin in Louisiana was
William Martin who was a Revolutionary War soldier. He is buried in
Vernon Parish.) I've been here ever since except for the time I left to study after high school and the
4 years I spent in Mexico as a missionary with World Indigenous
Missions. I returned to Pineville in 1990 with my wife and 1st
daughter and we've put our roots down deep. We've had two more
daughters and bought a home as well as opened a couple of businesses (Precision
Woodworks and Martin Properties) in Pineville. I am deeply committed to Pineville and
want to see it grow and prosper. Please
contact me if I can serve you.
