Greenwood City Attorney Candidate Travis Plummer submitted the following candidate profile to Resident News Network:
My name is Travis Plummer, and I am running for the Greenwood City Attorney position in the November general election. I am married to Shannon and we have two children, Trace and Sayler. I am originally from Waldron, Arkansas, and many Greenwood residents might remember me as the former owner/operator of Charbroiler Restaurant. During my time there from 2008 to 2016, I had many great customers from Greenwood. We made the Greenwood community our home in 2019, and we will remain here indefinitely.
I am a 2001 graduate of Waldron High School, earned my Bachelor of Professional Studies from Arkansas Tech University in 2016, and then graduated from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock William H. Bowen School of Law in 2019. Since that time, I have established a private law practice and have worked as deputy prosecutor for the 15th judicial district since January of 2020. Currently, I represent the cities of Mansfield and Hartford and I have gained valuable experience prosecuting county and city misdemeanors during my time as deputy prosecutor and city attorney.
I made the decision to run for Greenwood City Attorney because I want to be involved in the community where I live and where my children will be raised. As a citizen of the community, I have a vested interest in keeping our community safe and prosperous into the future. I am the most qualified candidate because of my prosecuting experience, my city attorney experience, and my open-door policy with city officials and law enforcement while serving in those roles. Having a quality working rapport with city officials and law enforcement is of high importance to me, and is a vital part of the city attorney position.
If I am elected as Greenwood’s next city attorney, my goals are to be fair but firm, consistent, attentive, and approachable, whether it be in regard to interacting with city officials, law enforcement, or defendants in court. I look forward to the opportunity to serve the City of Greenwood as city attorney, and I am committed to the best interests of the community for the long haul, whether I am elected or not. Thank you in advance for your support.
-Travis Plummer, candidate for city attorney for the City of Greenwood
