From the Slutzky campaign

David Slutzky, local small business owner and Chairman of the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors, on Wednesday announced his intention to run for reelection this November. Supervisor Slutzky - an Albemarle County resident since 1993 - has represented the Rio Magisterial District on the Board since January of 2006.

“It is my intention to run again this November,” Slutzky said. “I feel like I've accomplished a lot in my first term on the Board, however, there's still a lot that needs to be done. I hope that the voters of the Rio District will continue to support me as I work on the issues that are important to them.”

Slutzky said that he is particularly proud of his leadership with respect to solving local transportation challenges, funding infrastructure, addressing affordable housing needs, and protecting our rural areas. Slutzky has consistently supported economic development and job creation while drawing upon his international experience with environmental issues to the benefit of Albemarle County. He plans to run as a Democrat and is currently unopposed for that party's nomination. In addition to serving as Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, Slutzky is a part-time professor in the Urban and Environmental Planning Department at UVA and is an owner of E2 Inc., a Charlottesville-based environmental and economic policy firm.
