HOUSTON COUNTY: The Houston County Volunteer Fire Chief’s meet once a month. The group meets to discuss various issues and to revieve the tax checks for funding. Which is very little.
On Tuesday John Rogers, candidate for Houston County Commission Chairman and Richard Talley, candidate for Houston County Revenue Commissioner spoke.
Each candidate introduced themself and why they are seeking election to the respective offices.
Candidate John Rogers also presented the association with a personal donation for $ 500 to the association. The volunteer fire chief’s were shocked at the donation. Most candidates hand out government money and this is the first time a candidate gave a personal donation to help the volunteer fireman.
Rogers is seeking election as Chairman of the Houston County Commission. He said the office does not belong to the office holder but to the people. And Rogers said he desires to be a public servant to make Houston County a better place to live and work.
