Data Centers have been a point of discussion lately at forums & the recent County Commissioner meeting.

As one of the first candidates for Commissioner to publicly address the issue, I believe we have a responsibility to slow down, ask hard questions, & put our community first.

⚠️ Issue: Housing Costs Are Outpacing Washington County Residents

Washington County faces a shortage of housing options. Limited land for multifamily development, outdated land-use regulations, and inadequate infrastructure have stalled new construction.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

✔️ Require transparency and accountability from developers and ensure residents have meaningful opportunities to engage in development decisions.

✔️ Invest in infrastructure so new housing is supported by transportation, utilities, and services.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

✔️ Create opportunities for learners of all ages by strengthening connections between schools, employers, and community resources.

✔️ Listen directly to students, families, & educators to understand needs & push for accountability in performance & outcomes.

✔️ Expand partnerships with schools & orgs to provide wraparound support such as mental health services, counseling, mentoring, & after-school programs.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

✔️ Advocate for responsible, transparent school funding that supports safe schools, teachers, & measurable outcomes—w/o overburdening taxpayers.

✔️ Collaborate closely with the Board of Ed & community leaders to strengthen academic quality while respecting fiscal responsibility.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

⭐Resolution: Practical, Accountable, & Future-Focused Edu

Strong public schools are essential to our future. They protect property value, attract growth, & prepare next gen to support our local econ & public services. Schools must prepare students for success, not just tests.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

As County Commissioner, I will work to ensure edu investments lead to real results for students, families, & taxpayers by doing the following:

✔️ Align edu funding with workforce development so students graduate with skills that match local job opps & career paths in WashCo.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

With approximately 22,000 students across 46 schools, families need to be confident that our county is funding education wisely. When education funding isn’t aligned with workforce needs and community realities, students and the county fall behind.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

⚠️Issue: Often, success is measured by test scores, while students graduate without clear paths to good jobs, higher edu, or careers at home. The same time, teachers are stretched, families need support, & taxpayers deserve transparency & accountability for how edu $$$ are spent.

[Les McIntosh for Washington County Commissioner @mcintoshforus]

It's been a pleasure getting to meet so many wonderful people around Washington County over the last 6+ months. Every single day, it makes me even more eager to serve our community as your County Commissioner!
