Accomplishments made by the Commission - Part 2

As the Presiding Camden County Commissioner, we've accomplished a TON of tasks to make our county a better place for all. From protecting property value to saving the county money, Greg Hasty has made many positive changes in our community. We couldn't fit ALL the accomplishments into one blog, so don't forget to check out last week's blog - Accomplishments made by the Commission - Part 1!



"I’ve worked to build a close relationship with the other commissioners. We now have a Camden County Commission that works together as a team to make improvements to the operation of government. We’ve taken a hard look at how we do “the business of government”, to make improvements and enhance the quality of life of the citizens." - Greg Hasty


  • We restored $150,000~ of funding to HORSESHOE BEND SPECIAL ROAD DISTRICT.

  • In Camden County, we have hundreds of homes with garages and other improvements built within the right of way of county roads. Almost all of these were built prior to planning and zoning. We adopted the use of licenses for improvements within the right of way of county roads so that owners with existing improvements that encroach on the county right of way can get a loan.

  • The Camden County Commission requested and was granted the first comprehensive STATE AUDIT of Camden County in over 20 years. It became obvious that there were problems in the operation of county government and finances.  With all of the controversy, the only solution was to dig deep into the operation of county government to find and isolate the problems. The commission will act on the findings of the audit to fix problems identified. It is essential to have a county government you can trust. 

  • We have done a complete overhaul of the computer systems and IT of Camden County that had been neglected for years.

  • We’ve protected property values by stopping unwanted commercial and industrial development from encroaching into quiet residential neighborhoods, such as the proposed expansion of the rock quarry in Sunrise Beach.

  • We’ve bid out banking and insurance to save hundreds of thousands of tax dollars every year. 

  • On behalf of the Camden County Commission, I am pleased to announce that Standard and Poor’s has “raised our credit rating from “AA-“to “AA” while affirming the stable outlook.” The rating letter, dated February 23, 2018, confirms the improvement in the counties financial status that was asserted a few months ago when we refinanced county bonds for major structural repairs to the Camden County Justice Center.

The Camden County Commission has worked hard to make an impact on the entire county. Greg Hasty works hard each day to make our county a better place for every resident. He's looking out for our best interests! Greg is running for re-election for Camden County Commissioner. If you'd like to see the same hard work for our county for another four years, be sure to vote for Greg Hasty. He's a proven leader we can trust!
