James Jenkins, Incumbent
My family and I have lived in Pike County for 29 years. My wife and I raised 12 children in this wonderful county that we love so much. We are members of God’s family and Church of Joy.
I would like to thank all of District 4 constituents who have allowed me to represent them for the last 7 years. I feel our group of commissioners have moved Pike County forward in many ways to prepare the county for the growth we are experiencing. One area we still need to work on is our roads and the county has a road plan to achieve what our budget will allow. I would like to ask for your vote so we can continue to move forward and keep Pike County a place we can all be proud to call home.
When elected I promised to vote against any tax increase, and I have kept my promise. I also promised to listen to the constituents in District 4 which I have done and followed up with any request by phone and or email. I will continue work for you the next 4 years in the same way.
Thank you for your vote,
James Jenkins
Tricia Gwyn
Why am I running for Commissioner?
I have been a resident of Pike County for almost 15 years. I am married to Rusty Gwyn and we have 3 beautiful daughters. I currently work alongside my husband at his company, General Machine Diecron, Inc that is located in Pike County and I have been an agent at McLeRoy Realty for 15 years.
My desire is to create a strong board of commissioners who work closely, and who will allow all of Pike to grow in a positive manner. I want to sit at the table with the school board and help resolve the issues that growth has placed before them. I want all forms of Pike Leadership to come together annually to talk about each of their issues and priorities, and then work on ideas to resolve them. I want to find the most effective ways to reach these resolutions and to seek savings that could ease our current budget.
I want to involve the citizens of the 4th district and keep them informed, via social media, emails or phone calls. Topics such as current board agendas, rezoning applications, and other items they want answers for. I want to see the community conversations be about resolutions and being united on preserving Pike County as the wonderful place we all cherish. I want to have an open-door policy where people can communicate with me about their ideas and concerns within our district and engage them in the discussion to help plan for the future of our area. I want to be your County Commissioner and I want your vote! Email issues that matter to you: PCGADistrict4@gmail.com. What you have to say matters to me!
Sincerely,
Tricia Gwyn
