Croy announces for 3rd District
commissioner
FROM STAFF REPORTS
Rocky L. Croy of Watauga is today announcing
his candidacy for county commissioner of the 3rd District.
Croy, a lifelong resident of Carter County and
graduate of Elizabethton High School, is a lieutenant with
Carter County Sheriff's Department, where he has been employed
for 20 years.
In making his announcement, Croy said, "I believe
it is time that the taxes we pay should be put to good use
for the people of Carter County and to prepare for the future.
I would like to see the county grow so that we don't have
to watch our children move to find work in other cities.
"I see our taxes being raised but the money seems
to disappear. I feel the citizens of Carter County have the
right to see how their money is being used for the county."
Croy said he will listen to the people of Carter
County, hear their ideas and speak on their behalf so that
their voices can be heard. He welcomes any input the public
may have for the future of Carter County.
Croy, the son of Clyde and Linda Croy of Watauga,
is married to the former Cynthia Giles. The couple have three
children and three grandchildren.
Croy can be reached at 542-3949.
