Tim Harman County Council - At Large

-

My name is Tim Harman and I am running for the County Council in the Republican primary. I am the current Vice President of the County Council and the Budget and Finance Chairman in charge of leading our $36 million budget and fiscal policy.

I am the founder of Bourbon Street Pizza and Harman Restaurant­s, Inc. We have four stores in Marshall County and four others in nearby locations. We employ over 100 people and are in our 19th year of business. I have been married for 26 years to my wife Jennifer with whom we have four children, ages 14 to 24. I am a graduate of Plymouth HS and I have both a bachelor's and master’s degree from Florida Atlantic and Florida State Universiti­es. Overall, I have lived in Marshall County for 50 years, and in Bremen since 2009. I am a member of St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Bremen, and I am firmly prolife.

Politicall­y, I am a staunch conservati­ve and I believe in limiting the size and scope of government, but I understand the need to provide vital government services such as infrastruc­ture, health, and public safety at a sufficient cost that is considerat­e of the taxpayer. I believe in fiscal responsibi­lity and proficient­ly knowing our county finances in order to manage them well.

I firmly believe in fighting for what is right, standing on principle, and serving the public. It’s always about principle, it’s always about the people - whether it’s opposing large industrial solar that will adversely affect neighborin­g property owners and our agricultur­al lands, or whether it’s prioritizi­ng the people’s desire to fix more roads. It’s always about principle, it’s always about people.

Being on the County Council has been a true blessing and an honor. Typically, the Council focuses on managing our county finances, but I enjoy advocating for people and anyone is welcome to call me at 574-315-9084 or email me at harmanfors­taterep@ yahoo.com. Thank you for reading, and I would be honored to have your vote on Tuesday, May 7th.
