Brunswick County Commissioner
Small Business Owner Frank Williams
Officially Announces Candidacy For Brunswick County Commissioner
January
18, 2012 - Leland, NC - Brunswick County small business
owner and community leader Frank Williams, a
conservative Republican, officially announced his
candidacy for the Brunswick County Board of
Commissioners at an event Tuesday morning in Leland. The
event, which was held at the Comfort Suites Magnolia
Greens, attracted a standing-room-only crowd of
attendees from throughout Brunswick County. Williams is
seeking the District 5 seat currently held by Bill Sue,
who announced in late 2011 that he will not seek
re-election in 2012.
"Brunswick County has experienced tremendous growth over
the past decade, and that proves we have a good thing
going," says Williams. "It is critical that we exercise
the common-sense conservative leadership required to
make wise decisions and preserve the very reasons we
choose to call Brunswick County home."
"As a county commissioner, my priorities will include
keeping taxes low for our families and small businesses,
creating a climate in which small businesses and
entrepreneurs can grow, prosper and create jobs in
Brunswick County, and ensuring that county government
makes wise, efficient use of our citizens’ tax dollars,"
Williams added. "I look forward to the upcoming campaign
and am excited about the opportunity to meet with
Brunswick County's residents, hear their concerns,
answer their questions and earn their support."
Frank Williams grew up in the northern Brunswick County
community of Northwest and is a 1988 graduate of North
Brunswick High School. His first leadership role came as
a teenager, when he served as a Patrol Leader in
Leland's Boy Scout Troop 265. He attended North Carolina
State University in Raleigh, where he earned a B.A. in
Communication. Williams owns and operates Pioneer
