Perhaps Another Candidate for Oldham County PVA

I recently spoke with Jim Urban, the current director of Planning and Development, about the possibility of him becoming a candidate for Property Valuation Administrator.  He advised me that he intends to take the examination necessary to qualify to serve as the PVA.  The examination is given in November,

Urban stated that if he passes the examination he will "consider" running for the office.  I am sure that he will have many factors to consider.  If he were to remain in his current position, he would become subject to the "Hatch Act" that bars a person from being a candidate for public office at the same time that he/she is serving in a position in which federal funds are expended and the position has any control over the funds.

If the office of the Property valuation Administrator receives any federal funds, Barbara Winters could also be subject to the "Hatch Act".  However, I do not have any knowledge that it does receive  federal funds.
