County Commissioner will run for re-election
By Community Impact Newspaper Staff Monday, 23 November 2009
Williamson County Commissioner Cynthia Long announced Nov. 18 she will seek a second term, according to a news release.
Long decided to run for re-election in precinct two, which includes the cities of Cedar Park, Leander and Liberty Hill.
“Making Williamson County the place where residents not only want to live but work, worship, shop, play, and go to school continues to be a top priority,” Long said in the release. “I am seeking a second term to continue the progress that I have made towards that priority.”
Long is a fiscal conservative and cites a lower property tax rate as one of her achievements during her first term. She is also leading the effort to eliminate a business tax in order to encourage more businesses to come to and remain in Williamson County.
During her first term, Long helped secure over $30 million in funding for transportation improvements through her position as vice-chairman of the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) and her appointment as chair of the CAMPO Finance Committee.
Before being elected as county commissioner, Long served as a Cedar Park City Council member, mayor pro-tem, and vice-chairman of the Cedar Park Planning and Zoning Commission.
