 Pros

  • Nice guy
  • His cousin (Mike Meador) is the outgoing commissioner

Cons

  •  Oddly has reportedly attended very few, if any, commissioner court meetings.
  •  Really doesn't have a clue about what's going on with the court.
  •  Has said (in at least the Pachyderm forum) that he's going to go along w/Commissioners' Riley and Metts on their  spending sprees. 
  •  Supporter of tax increases to grow county government.
  •  He believes government plays important role in the county.
  •  We have a $350 million dollar county budget he believes the government needs every dollar.
  •  He does not want to lower appraisal on homes(believes everyone should want a high appraisal on their homes).
  •  Our commissioners are paid more than the Governor. Will not drop salary(wants every penny of his salary). 
  •  Did not have a good showing in Tue. 11/26 Pachyderm Forum.
  •  Obvious he will cater to will of current commissioners, instead of looking out for taxpayers.
  •  Says the other commissioners are doing a good job; as good as they can do. And deserve their bloated compensation
