PRESS RELEASE Commissioner of the Revenue Lee Richards has announced his endorsement of Todd Divers to succeed him. "Todd had expressed an interest in running if I decided to retire. I informed him of my decision in January. "After almost twenty years as Commissioner, I was looking for a successor possessed of good character, values, ethics, and a sense of humor. Todd has them all. "Any candidate requires a period of job-specific initiation; however I am confident that Todd, if elected, will be able to handle the responsibilities of running a full-service tax office. "I encourage the voters of Charlottesville to support him in the June 11th Democratic primary for Charlottesville Commissioner of the Revenue." Todd Divers's response: "I am profoundly honored by Lee Richards's words of support. "Lee has been an exemplary public servant to this community. Anyone who has been in contact with him is aware of his tremendous dedication to the office and to the constituency he serves. The high regard in which he is held by the community is a testament to this fact. I am truly grateful for Lee's support, and I look forward to the remainder of the campaign."
