My wife Kelly and I and our 2 sons, Will and Luke, have lived in Platte County for over 16 years.
I’ve run a successful commercial real estate business for over 20 years. And over the past few years, I’ve served on the Platte County Industrial Development Authority Board, the Platte County Board of Equalization, and the Platte County CARES Act Small Business Advisory Committee.
This combination of success in the private sector a demonstrated commitment to public service makes me the only candidate in this race who is qualified to lead Missouri's fastest growing county into the future.
Throughout this campaign and during my four-year term as Presiding Commissioner, I’ll focus on the three conservative principles of Public Safety, Economic Prosperity, and Fiscal Responsibility.
Vote for me in November, and then let's work together to make sure Platte County is a great place to live, work, and raise a family for years to come. My name is Scott Fricker, and "I Work For You".- Platte County is the fastest growing county in Missouri, so we need a Presiding Commissioner with a track record of success in the private sector and a demonstrated commitment to public service.
