(Ad) Scotty Neat, R, for Adair Co., PVA 2018-01-27 - Columbia, KY - Photo Submitted by Candidate. To the people of Adair County, KY. My name is Scotty Neat. I have filed as a candidate for the office of Property Valuation Administrator (PVA) of Adair County. I am the son of Jeff and Rita Neat, who are longtime residents of this community. I met my lovely wife Michelle (Copley) Neat right here in Adair County while she attended Lindsey Wilson College. I have called Adair County home my entire life and to say I'm excited for the possibility of serving the people of this great community is an understatement. I graduated from Adair County High school before attending and graduating from Western Kentucky University with my Bachelor's degree and Morehead State University with a Master's of Business Administration degree. I serve as the Assistant Superintendent and Secretary at New Hope Separate Baptist Church, where my family and I have attended my entire life. I have managed a health care facility for the past several years which has provided me valuable management and budgetary experience which would serve me well in the PVA office. If elected, my goal is simple: to treat everyone fairly and respectfully, provide honest and unbiased valuations, and to offer my full commitment to the betterment of both the PVA office and Adair County, our home. The promise I make to you as voters is that I, if elected as a servant of this county, will have a very real presence in the office. I will be reachable by phone, e-mail, or by open door policy if you have questions or concerns for me. I vow to treat everyone with dignity, respect, and fairness. I love this community, and that is why I want to be a servant to the citizens of Adair County and earn the privilege of being your property valuation administrator. I desire your support and encouragement, and would like to humbly ask for your vote this upcoming election. Feel free to contact me at any time at (270) 634-2320, by e-mail at scottyneat@live.com , or check out our Facebook page "Scotty Neat for Adair County PVA". It would be an honor to serve as YOUR next PVA! - Scotty Neat. - Paid for by the candidate, Scotty Neat Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
