![]() It is with great pride that I, Mark Smith, announce my candidacy for re-election as your Bradford County commissioner. I am asking for your vote in the May 19th primary election. Throughout my two terms as your county commissioner, I have worked continually to move Bradford Co forward. Over the course of my term I have been proud to put our county on sound financial footing by carrying out a plan to eliminate county debt, cut taxes, and I have supported wise investments of impact fee monies that will benefit our county for decades to come. If elected to another term, my priorities will be to see the county on a path toward sustainable job growth and positive overall economic development. I also will work to invest our impact fee dollars wisely and strongly in communities across Bradford Co. I believe this is our time. We now have the ability and the resources to move Bradford Co forward on the economic front, as never before. I look forward to meeting that challenge as your county commissioner. |
