Small Business Owner Frank Williams
Officially Files as a Candidate for Brunswick County Commissioner in
District 5
February
13, 2012 - Leland, NC - Brunswick County small business
owner Frank Williams officially filed today as a
Republican candidate for the Brunswick County Board of
Commissioners in District 5. Williams, a Brunswick
County native and 1988 graduate of North Brunswick High
School, announced his candidacy last year and held a
formal announcement event in Leland last month. Current
District 5 Commissioner Bill Sue announced in late 2011
that he will not seek re-election. While District 5
covers most of northern Brunswick County, commissioners
are elected in a county-wide vote.
"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 are
proud 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 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 Strategies, a
marketing and public relations firm he founded in August
2001. He serves on the boards of directors of
Communities in Schools of Brunswick County, the North
Brunswick Chamber of Commerce and the Leland Area Rotary
Club. Williams also serves on the Brunswick Community
College Small Business Center Advisory Committee and
chaired the Boy Scouts' 2010 and 2011 fundraising
breakfasts in Leland. He is a member of the National
Rifle Association. Williams is an active member of
Northside Baptist Church.
