Supervisor Pat Herrity (R-Springfield) chose to align himself with the luck of the Irish, using his annual St. Patrick’s Day get together at the Springfield Golf and Country Club to announce his bid to seek re-election to represent the Springfield District.
“I am proud of my accomplishments to date and want to continue to be a leader on the Board of Supervisors on the critical issues that face residents of Fairfax County,” Herrity said in a statement. “With your help I will continue to work to get spending under control, stop the ever-increasing homeowner taxes, fix the government regulation that hinders economic growth and high quality jobs from coming to Fairfax County. Help me implement common sense solutions to our ever-increasing traffic congestion and to promote transparency in our local government.”
The 1978 graduate of West Springfield High School was first elected to the Board of Supervisors in November 2007. He currently lives in Little Rocky Run with wife Nancy, son Sean and daughter Valeria. In addition to his work on the board, Herrity is chief operating officer for Herndon-based Delex Systems.
