Last Friday, August 26, the SIBA BUILD PAC, representing the interests of the Southwestern Indiana Builders Association, announced its support of Cheryl Musgrave for Vanderburgh County Commissioner, District 3, in this November’s election.
“Cheryl’s appreciation for safe and affordable home building in our community came through, loud and clear,†said Carl Shepherd, 2016 Chairman of the SIBA PAC. “She understands our concerns. Vanderburgh voters who value having a pro-building voice in the local government should vote for her.â€
Musgrave welcomed the support. “One of the chief goals of county government is to create an environment where everyone in the community prospers,†she said. “When elected Commissioner, I will do that by making local government responsive, efficient, and fair for everyone.â€
Bill Pedtke, executive director of SIBA, stressed the importance of the County Commissioner position. “The County Commissioners are both the executive and the legislative branches of county government,” he said. “They set the agenda for the county, and it is vital to have an active, hands-on, pro-growth person in that position. The SIBA PAC committee felt strongly that Cheryl Musgrave is that person.”
SIBA PAC also endorsed Musgrave in her contested primary in May of this year.
