Christiansburg councilwoman again draws colleagues' scrutiny

CHRISTIANSBURG — Councilwoman Johana Hicks was at the center of another episode last week when her colleagues again raised questions about whether she crossed ethical lines.
At the tail end of a four-hour-long meeting Tuesday, Hicks engaged in a heated exchange with several council members as they went over recent Facebook comments she made in relation to upcoming plans to build an approximately $18 million park on old farmland just off of Peppers Ferry Road—as well as an issue with a rental property she owns with her husband.
Similar to her previous clashes with council, Hicks characterized the latest quarrel as nothing other than an attempt to bully her because of her nonconforming views.
