Brunswick County Commissioner Frank Williams officially files for re-election
[December 4, 2023] -- BOLIVIA, N.C. -- Brunswick County Commissioner Frank Williams, a Republican who represents District 5, officially filed as a candidate for re-election in the 2024 election today. “Serving the county where I grew up is both a tremendous honor and a great responsibility, and it is a job I take very seriously,” said Williams. “Thanks to our fiscally conservative leadership, Brunswick County has one of the lowest property tax rates of any county in North Carolina. We’ve, built a strong rainy-day fund that has weathered multiple storms, including Hurricanes Matthew, Florence, Dorian, and Isaias. We direct our resources toward critical priorities like public safety and public education. We are steadily expanding our water and sewer infrastructure, and we’ve successfully enhanced our economic development and job recruitment efforts. Additionally, our County has won multiple awards for financial reporting and transparency, received clean audits year after year, and maintained a strong credit rating.”
