It’s Time for New Leadership!

My name is Vickie Butler, and I’m excited to announce my candidacy for District 1, Fayette County Commissioner. As a resident of unincorporated Tyrone for over 24 years, I have seen the resilience and vitality of our community. Now, I am eager to play my part in shaping its future as your commissioner.

Priorities for Our Community:

Fiscally Responsible: Effectively manage the county’s operating and capital budget in a sensible and accountable manner, ensuring transparency and clarity of action and fostering collaboration-based relationships.

Public Safety: Prioritize recruiting qualified law enforcement officers and first responders by providing competitive compensation and ongoing training in community relations, de-escalation techniques, and mental health awareness.

Expand Human Services: Work closely with legislators to expand public health services and support systems for our most vulnerable residents, including seniors, those with disabilities, and mental wellness.

Smart & Sustainable Growth: Promote responsible economic policies that preserve the unique character of Fayette County while supporting sustainable growth and development.

Workforce Recruitment & Housing Attainability: Advocate for constructing more workforce housing to ensure essential workers, like teachers and first responders can afford to live in Fayette County.

As a small business owner, community volunteer, and mother of a neurodivergent adult son, I understand the needs of our community. My experiences have prepared me to manage policy development and budgeting effectively, always prioritizing our residents' safety, health, and well-being.

My Vision for Fayette County:

I envision a safe and thriving community where families can flourish, businesses can succeed, and everyone can enjoy a high quality of life. Together, we can build a future where Fayette County remains a place we're proud to call home.

Why I'm Running:

I'm running for this position because I love Fayette County and want to give back to a community that has given so much to me and my family. I'm ready to take my commitment to community service to the next level and work tirelessly to make our county the best it can be.

Thank you for your support, and I look forward to earning your vote.
