Commissioner of Revenue
The Frederick County Commissioner of the Revenue provides a valuable service to the community. I am seeking the Republican nomination for Commissioner of the Revenue because I believe I can effectively leverage my management experience to bring a fresh perspective, streamline operations to benefit taxpayers and the County, and make a significant difference to Frederick County.
As a business professional for over 30 years, I am an experienced leader with a proven track record of excellence in management, team building, and service. I spent 25 years in banking in Frederick County and the surrounding area, and I successfully managed hundreds of employees and millions of dollars in assets. My experience also includes revenue and expense controls, process improvement, compliance with federal and state regulators, internal and external audits, and long-range strategic planning. When elected, I plan to tap into my experience using creativity and problem-solving skills to restructure workflows, processes, and procedures to maximize efficiency. I was born and raised in Winchester-Frederick County, and I am deeply committed to maintaining the integrity of the Office of the Commissioner of the Revenue and enhancing the lives of the people who call Frederick County home. I humbly ask for your support. |
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.
