Election history

1999 election

Strucko announced his candidacy for the White Hall district for the Board of Supervisors in late March 1999 and pledged to control growth in Albemarle County. [4]

"If Albemarle County increases its efforts to manage growth than a lot of concerns would disappear," said Strucko, who at the time was the budget director for the UVA Medical Center. He told the newspaper that he opposed plans to develop a big box retail store at the intersection of I-64 and Fifth Street Extended.
