Meet Delores Oates – Candidate for North River Supervisor

Delores Oates, Republican candidate for North River Supervisor, talks with Royal Examiner publisher Mike McCool.

Delores Oates, Republican candidate for North River Supervisor, talked with Royal Examiner publisher Mike McCool about her run for the Warren County Board of Supervisors.

Delores is a lifelong resident of Warren County, and she says, “I care deeply about the people of this community, especially the future of our children”.

Like most citizens, the corruption and misuse of taxpayer dollars revealed in the recent EDA case has shaken her confidence in the current leadership. Oates says these events have revealed the need for change, substantive change, and government should represent the best interest of the community and provide services in the most fiscally responsible way possible.

When asked about development in the corridor she said, “I am opposed to Crooked Run West, a residential development proposed in the North River District. This development would require a change in the Warren County comprehensive plan and it would create additional tax burden on our citizens. Considering the current state of Warren County’s budget and economic development, it is ill advised to consider any proposal that would require more infrastructure (i.e. schools, fire and rescue, and transportation) to an already over burdened system.”
