Commissioner of Revenue

My name is Seth Thatcher and I am running for Commissioner of the Revenue in Frederick County. I have worked for the current Commissioner, Ellen Murphy, for 12 years and she has endorsed my candidacy. I have been awarded a certification as Master Deputy Commissioner of the Revenue from the UVA Weldon Cooper Center. I am a licensed residential appraiser in Virginia. I have taken a course on the Code of Virginia as it pertains to the Commissioner's Office in order to be fully prepared if elected. I also have a B.A. from Towson State University. In addition to this, I am a past Chairman of the Frederick County Republican Committee. I recently served as FCRC Election Day Chairman in 2016. Last October I was elected to serve as Chairman of the Salvation Army Winchester Advisory Board and I am Vice President of the Kiwanis Club of Old Town. If elected I will continue to retain the excellent staff we have and the great rapport we have with Frederick County taxpayers. I will continue the work started by Ellen Murphy to improve systems and processes to make our staff more efficient and help taxpayers more easily work with our office.
