The Right Person, At The Right Time

For The Right Reasons 

LeAnne Long County Commissioner District 5

Meet LeAnne:

I am fortunate to have formed connections with many citizens of Newton County. Over the past 34 years, I have been actively involved in the community, serving on the Board of Commissioners and Board of Equalization for more than 15 years. I am also an active volunteer for Project Renewal and various other events aimed at improving our community. Additionally, I take great pleasure in sponsoring numerous schools and community events. Currently, I serve as the President of the River Cove Civic Association Homeowners and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to represent you as the New District 5 County Commissioner.

Family and Career:

I have been a resident of Newton County for 36 years and am a business owner. I have been happily married to Stanley for 37 years, and together we have two adult children who are married, as well as two beautiful grandchildren, aged 4 years and 4 months.

We moved to Newton County in 1988 and quickly developed a deep affection for the community. Stanley retired from AT&T after 41 years of service, while I have enjoyed a fulfilling career in Real Estate since 1988 and have been a small business owner since 2006.

We became deeply involved in the school system, and both our daughter, Rhiannon Long Townley, and son, Colton Long, graduated from the Newton County school system and went on to attend prestigious colleges. Rhiannon graduated from the University of Georgia, and Colton graduated from Abraham Baldwin College in Tifton.

Our two beautiful grandchildren live less than 1 mile away, and I thoroughly enjoy being their Glam!
