Everett Wolfe
My name is Everett Wolfe. I have been your Vernon County Southern Commissioner for the past eight years and would like to serve for the next four years. I am a lifelong Vernon County resident, graduating from Nevada High School, and then obtaining an Associate Degree. I live in Deerfield with my wife, Rita, and we own and operate a cattle and grain farm. Our family includes our son, daughter, their spouses, and one granddaughter.
Prior to becoming your Southern Commissioner, I was the manager of Producers Grain Company in Nevada for 11 years. Being family and community oriented, I served on the Cole Township board, Deerfield Cemetery board, Vo-Tech Advisory board, and I am a past 4-H project leader, and Extension Counsel member. I am currently president of Public Water Supply District #7.
Working with the other commissioners and elected officials I have seen Vernon County continue to prosper and grow. We also continue to work with the townships during this time of increased rainfall to try and resolve the poor road conditions. Some of our completed projects and programs include the following:
--The building and replacement of numerous bridges and road culverts by the Vernon County Bridge Crew.
--Changed the 911 Call Center to a county entity from one governed by a joint board.
--The Commission partnered with the City of Nevada and the Emergency Manager to set up a Code Red Emergency Text Alert System to keep the community informed in the event of an emergency.
--The revamping of Katy Allen Lake. Consulting with the Kaysinger Basin Regional Planning Commission, a nature reservoir and walking trail were created for the communities' use and enjoyment.
--The continued maintenance of the Vernon County Fairgrounds. Working with the Fair Board, the fair diner was remodeled, and a video system was installed in the show area, with viewing screens located in the diner.
--The new multi-purpose building located on the fairgrounds. After discussion with the Vernon County Farmers Market and the Fair Board, a need was identified, and the building was designed and built for use by clubs, organizations, and the community.
--A higher level of security has been implemented in the Vernon County Courthouse, with the north door designated as the primary entrance, installation of a metal detector, and the hiring of a full time bailiff for the safety of the employees and citizens.
As needs and opportunities arise, the Commissioners will continue to improve and grow Vernon County. During my eight years in office I have enjoyed meeting, visiting, and working with many new people, and look forward to continuing serving you for the next four years. Your support and vote would be greatly appreciated.
