SUMMARY:District 1 Pima County Supervisor Chair Rex Scott at DGT
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Please join us for an update from Pima County by Chair and Pima Supervisor District 1\, Rex Scott on Nov. 3 at noon via Zoom. We will be discussing recent County business\, including a detailed discussion of the Project Blue data center proposal.\n\n\n\nYou Must Register in Advance for this Event:\n\n\n\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/bfXNUax0Q_meiwvMR7OLdQ\n\n\n\nPima County Supervisor Rex Scott was first elected to represent District One in 2020 and was re-elected in 2024. He has been married to a fellow career educator since 1994 and they are the parents of adult twins. For most of those years\, the family has lived in District One and the twins are graduates of Mountain View High School in the Marana Unified School District. \n\n\n\nSupervisor Scott grew up in Athens\, Ohio and earned two bachelor’s degrees from Ohio University\, which is in Athens. In 1987\, at the age of 24\, he became the first Ohio University student elected to serve on Athens City Council. He was re-elected in 1989\, chaired the Finance Committee in his second term and joined with two of his colleagues to start the city’s curbside recycling program. \n\n\n\nIn 1991\, Supervisor Scott moved to Pima County to take a position teaching social studies at Flowing Wells Junior High School\, one of three schools in District One that he served during his career as a public-school educator. In 2000\, Supervisor Scott began his 19-year career as an administrator working in both middle and high schools. During that time\, he was an assistant principal at Ironwood Ridge High School and the principal at Tortolita Middle School\, both District One schools. \n\n\n\nIn his free time\, Supervisor Scott enjoys spending time with family and friends\, hiking in our beautiful deserts and mountains\, running on The Loop or in Sabino Canyon and reading. He is a longtime fan of the Cincinnati Reds and Miami Dolphins\, which helps him to practice patience! The book that has influenced his values and beliefs more than any other is Man’s Search For Meaning by Viktor Frankl.” \n\n\n\nCarolyn’s note: Supervisor Rex (D) is in his 2nd term on the Pima County Bd. of Supervisors\, and is a supporter of the controversial Project Blue data center building\, along with fellow Supervisors Matt Heinz (D) and Steve Christy (R). The Tucson City Council (all D) voted unanimously to reject an earlier proposal of Project Blue.
