Glenn seeks re-election as road superintendent
|
In announcing his bid for re-election, Glenn recalled what prompted him to seek office in the beginning.
?Before I was elected in 1994, I was self-employed for many years and my job carried me all over Warren County where I saw the condition of county roads,? Glenn recalled. ?I felt that if elected I could make a difference. The citizens of Warren County gave me that opportunity and I want to thank each of you for allowing me to serve as your working road superintendent.?
Glenn said his goal is to oil and chip every gravel road, something he has almost accomplished.
?When I was first elected, there were approximately 370 miles of gravel roads,? Glenn said. ?At the present time, we have completed approximately 360 miles with less than 10 miles to go.?
Glenn pointed out a well-maintained road system is key to the growth of the county, adding the roads are in the best shape they have ever been here.
?I feel I have had a successful paving program and I have improved the equipment and facilities all while staying within my budget and not causing a tax burden on the citizens,? Glenn said. ?I ask that you consider the progress that I have made in the past 12 years and if re-elected we will continue to accomplish more.?
Glenn is asking for your vote in the Aug. 3 general election.
