Owning a small business teaches you something quickly — you can't spend money you don't have.

Every purchase has to make sense. Every investment has to provide value. Sometimes that means making difficult choices today so you're in a stronger position tomorrow.

Fiscal Responsibility & Tax Relief · Joey Andrews for Warren County District 4 Commissioner

Joey Andrews's campaign for Warren County Commissioner is his first run for public office. 

2026 North Carolina General Election

I've carried that same mindset throughout my years serving as Fire Chief. Resources are never unlimited. Good leadership means making thoughtful decisions, planning ahead, and being accountable for every dollar entrusted to you.

I believe county government should operate with that same level of responsibility. Not because government is a business — it isn't. But because taxpayers deserve leaders who understand the value of hard-earned money.

Economic development isn't just about attracting new businesses. It's also about supporting the businesses that have already chosen to call Warren County home.

My goal isn't to change that commitment. My goal is to help strengthen it by encouraging a culture of service, responsiveness, and collaboration. County government exists to serve the people — not the other way around.

# Protecting the Place We Call Home

Every land use decision should respect property rights, preserve our rural character, and reflect the values of the people who call this county home.

Land Use · Joey Andrews for Warren County District 4 Commissioner

Good decisions aren't rushed. They're made with respect for the people who will live with them for years to come. Some issues deserve more listening than talking. Before making decisions that affect families, businesses, and future generations, I want to understand the facts, hear from the people most affected, and consider the long-term impact on Warren County.

## What This Means for Warren County

Growth is neither something to fear nor something to pursue without careful planning. Our responsibility is to grow wisely.

Supporting public safety isn't simply about responding to emergencies. It's about helping ensure our firefighters, EMS professionals, law enforcement officers, emergency management personnel, and volunteers have the resources, training, and support they need to serve our communities effectively.

Supporting public safety isn't simply about responding to emergencies. It's about helping ensure our firefighters, EMS professionals, law enforcement officers, emergency management personnel, and volunteers have the resources, training, and support they need to serve our communities effectively.

It also means recognizing that public safety begins long before the first emergency call comes in. Preparation saves lives.

Good infrastructure also requires patience and planning. Some projects take years to complete, and the decisions we make today will influence Warren County for decades. That's why I believe infrastructure investments should always be guided by long-term thinking, fiscal responsibility, and the needs of the people we serve.

Transportation & Infrastructure

As our communities continue to grow, access to clean, reliable water will only become more valuable. I believe Warren County has both an opportunity and a responsibility to be a thoughtful steward of this resource. That means protecting water quality, planning wisely for the future, and ensuring decisions affecting our water resources reflect the long-term interests of the people who call Warren County home.
