Issues

generationsAs your current supervisor, Brad Rosenberger has helped lead the way for 32 years on the Culpeper Board of Supervisors!

He has fought to ensure our quality of life will remain high while we grow as a community. Brad has worked tirelessly to attract high-tech clean industry jobs that blend well with our agricultural base and rural character while fighting off developers who saw Culpeper as a blank slate to create sprawl and dense population centers.

While calculated and managed growth helps to maintain our economy and give everyone services and features they desire; “rapid” growth has strained our support system and raised costs as it has in neighboring communities.

Highlights & Accomplishments

With 3 decades of service on the Board, and having been elected 6 times to serve as Chairman of the Board, Brad does not need on the job training. He has worked on the State and local levels, using common sense instead of political or ideological orthodoxy to arrive at solutions. This has garnered him deep respect within the community as well as at all levels of government. Brad cares about your family and has the voting record that demonstrates our shared values.
