Golden (R) announces re-election bid for Montgomery County Mayor
Montgomery County Mayor Wes Golden announced his candidacy for re-election in the August 6 General Election, reflecting on the priorities he set during his first campaign and the progress made over the past three and a half years.
Since taking office, Montgomery County has secured major private investment, including two new hospitals and additional healthcare expansion that will bring hundreds of high-paying jobs to our community. As our population increases, expanding access to quality healthcare close to home is critical for local families. This level of investment strengthens our local economy and ensures residents have the services they need right here in Montgomery County.
Public safety has remained a top priority. During his first term, Golden led the creation of the Montgomery County Fire Department, strengthening daytime coverage to support the volunteer system and building long-term capacity to protect the community. The county also increased School Resource Officers across its schools, added an additional ambulance and staffing in North Clarksville, and launched a county-run medic program that is now fully staffed to serve residents.
Education continues to be central to the county’s long-term planning. To keep pace with enrollment and ensure students have the space and resources they need, Montgomery County will open its third new school in three years.
