Endorsements of Barb Sturgeon

“Barb Sturgeon is known as a strong proponent of creative solutions to the issues Williamson County is facing. She has demonstrated over the past four years that she is focused on the best interests of the residents of this community and is an advocate for low taxes. She regularly seeks input from her constituents via regular newsletters and constituent coffees. Barb is a Commissioner who encourages pursuing new solutions to problems rather than just accepting the status quo. I strongly endorse Barb Sturgeon for re-election to the Williamson County Commission.”

Phillip Cantrell,

CEO Benchmark Realty

“If there were a “constituent care” award given to County Commissioners, Commissioner Sturgeon would be the recipient. A most common phrase, usually prefacing her public comments, for which Barb is noted is “my constituents think” or “my constituents want to know”. Commissioner Sturgeon knows this axiom of governing very well. With regard to strategic planning, controlled growth, and fiscal responsibility, Barb is your gal. She has worked hard to increase transparency, get straight answers, and encourage frugal budgeting in an environment that is quite difficult to navigate such principles. Endorsing Commissioner Sturgeon in her efforts toward re-election is a pleasure and an honor. There are few servant leaders of this caliber. Citizens of the 8th District will be blessed to once again have Commissioner Barb Sturgeon continue her service to them four more years.”

Sherri Clark,

Williamson County Commissioner District 9

“I am happy to endorse Barb Sturgeon as she campaigns for a second term as our representative to the Williamson County Commission. Barb has been diligent in keeping us informed regarding issues coming before the Commission. She sends notices of the agenda, meets with constituents on a regular basis, and sends followup after each Commission meeting to let us know the results of the meetings. She has been very responsive to requests for assistance from our neighborhood and very helpful in providing information about how best to navigate Williamson County offices. Barb is always respectful and seeks to serve the needs of her constituents, regardless of political viewpoint, and I think her experience and wide ranging knowledge of the people and issues in Williamson County will be invaluable.”

Gerry Miller,
Secretary Battlewood Homeowners Association

Barb is a true advocate for sensible county growth. She values the natural beauty and charm of Williamson County and is willing to work towads preserving and protecting it.”

“Franklin has been our home for over 20 years. Of all the County Commissioners, School Board Members, Planning Commissioners, and Mayors we have met, above all, Barb Sturgeon has been the most helpful, the most available to constituents, and the hardest working local government servant. Barb sends monthly emails highlighting local government issues as well as meets with residents each month at a local coffee shop to keep her constituents informed. Barb has assisted us in navigating the workings of local government and has provided a much-needed liaison for concerned citizens. Barb has been a strong advocate for preserving our county’s heritage through responsible development. She has represented her constituents well, advocating for fiscally wise leadership and transparency. With genuine enthusiasm, we strongly endorse Barb Sturgeon for re-election as a Williamson County Commissioner. “

Throughout her 8 years on the County Commission, Barb has consistently sought to bring about efficiency, transparency, and accountability from county government to its citizens.

She is the role model on the commission for communicating with her contituents, authoring a newsletter and meeting with any interested parties at a convenient location every month. We are very fortunate to have Barb’s dedicated srvice to the people of District 8.”
