Dale Buckner, a long-time resident of Montgomery County, has announced plans to seek the Republican nomination for the District D seat on the county’s board of supervisors.
Buckner said Thursday he would be a tireless worker for the interests of the people. He has lived in the Pilot community for the past 39 years and is a graduate of Christiansburg High School.
“I will actively listen to you and be a voice for everyone,” Buckner said. “I will be a strong supporter of law enforcement and first responders and a non-wavering supporter of the Second Amendment.”
His platform also includes support for quality education opportunities for all students with a safe- learning environment with school resource officers; high-speed internet for all citizens in the county and better road maintenance and infrastructure while keeping taxes low.
“I will never participate in unnecessary spending of county money,” he said.
The District D seat is currently held by Republican Todd King, who has yet to announce his candidacy for re-election.
