The county has been growing at just above 1% growth rate year over year. Absence of business growth, taxes can rapidly increase to provide public services to the community and offer competitive salaries to county employees. In order to maintain sustainability in the business industry and local job retention there has to be enough consumers. Combined with the building of residential developments, tax revenues increase enabling the Board of Supervisors to improve infrastructure, county employee salaries, and public facilities . This is always a balancing act and trying to maintain moderate growth so not to change the composition of Spotsylvania County is something he has always focused on.
