The May 16 Pennsylvania primary election for municipal, school board and county officials is most important because the decisions of local elected officials have a direct impact on the quality of our everyday life.
As voters, we need to elect highly qualified candidates who will best serve the public in these respective Armstrong County offices.
To that end, Pat Fabian is the right choice for Armstrong County commissioner.
Fabian has provided extraordinary leadership with integrity and commitment to serve the citizens of Armstrong County. As a commissioner for eight years, he has a proven track record of dedicated and outstanding public service.
Fabian, as a fiscally responsible elected official, has held the line on taxes and has accepted his fiduciary responsibilities to manage county assets based on informed business decisions and best financial practices.
He clearly understands the connections among economic, community and workforce development. As commissioner, Fabian will continue to meet the changing needs of Armstrong County by growing the local tax base, investing in infrastructure, keeping local jobs and creating new jobs in cooperation with county businesses, agencies and municipal, state and federal officials.
Fabian is a goodwill ambassador for Armstrong County, representing the county at the regional and state level. He works tirelessly to pursue business growth opportunities and to increase the county’s economic footprint in southwestern Pennsylvania.
Fabian is the right choice for the future of Armstrong County.
