A Proven Leader for Chatham County!
For the past 4 years, we’ve delivered on our promise
to make education, fiscal responsibility, land use/
regional planning and economic development our
priorities:
Increased school funding to 4th highest of 100 state counties, while keeping
property taxes average for NC counties.
Board of Commissioners were selected “Commissioners of the Year” in 2009 by
the NC School Board Association in recognition for their outstanding support of
our schools and for developing a positive working relationship with the Board of
Education.
Chatham County has 20% fewer employees per capita than most counties in NC—
one of the most efficient in the State.
With outstanding leadership and hard-working employees in law enforcement,
public health and social services, along with extraordinary efforts of our non-profit
agencies, Chatham has been able to continue essential services.
We instituted major changes to existing land use ordinances to encourage economic
growth, protect our environment, retain our rural character, and prevent sprawl.
We played a key role in passage of the Jordan Lake nutrient rules by the state
legislature —protecting Jordan Lake as a regional drinking water resource and
recreational area.
We restructured the Economic Development Corporation and developed a strategic
plan in cooperation with Pittsboro, Siler City, Goldston, business leaders and
interested citizens.
Because of this exceptional stewardship of county resources and practical capital
planning, Chatham County’s bond ratings increased. Chatham now has the highest
ratings of any county of its size in the State.
