Fiscal Court Candidates – 1st District Magistrate

May 7, 2022

Scott Lasley

Lasley is a Professor and Head of the WKU Department of Political Science and former Chairman of the Warren County Republican Party. He states in a FB video that “he will work each and every day to work with you to do what is best for Warren County.” Unfortunately, we’re not sure what that means.

Lasley’s platform includes: fiscal responsibility, supporting law enforcement and first responders, prioritizing economic development and job creation, advancing workforce development, infrastructure and improve quality of life.

Lasley did not participate in the WCC Candidate survey, or other WCC voter education events.

Candidate Withdrawn From Race

Sandy Jones Boussard

Ex-Bowling Green mayor drops out of Warren County magistrates race

This business woman, former City Commissioner (1999-2000) and former Bowling Green Mayor (2000-2004) offers herself as an “experienced” candidate. Boussard cites church leadership and involvement in “downtown master planning and the early days of the Kentucky Transpark” as endeavors which make her most proud.

According to the Daily News, Boussard’s platform emphasizes “public safety, finding and keeping good jobs, job skills education and effective financial management” as well as “economic prosperity and quality of life issues.”

Unfortunately, we do not know where Boussard stands on taxes, ethics, communicating with constituents, and infrastructure needs.

Boussard was unable to participate in any WCC voter education events and did not return the Fiscal Court Candidate survey.

District 1 consists of the following precincts: Peachtree, Crossridge, Municipal Park, Potter Gray, Natcher, Grider Pond, Briarwood, Shive Kiel, Greenwood, Eastwood, Airport, Middle Bridge, Campbell, Hartland, Watts Mill, Steeplechase, Wrenwood, and Mooreland.

Luis Llontop

Originally from Peru, Luis Llontop arrived in Bowling Green after accepting a WKU soccer scholarship. While working his way up the ladder at an Alvaton construction company, he was awarded permanent residency status in the United States. In this capacity, he managed various jobs in the southeast and was part of the crew that restored the Bowling Green Riverwalk bridge.

Llontop advocates for planned growth to “sustain the character of our community,” jobs, infrastructure, internet, public safety and fiscal responsibility.

Llontop did not respond to the WCC survey, so we are unsure where he stands on specific issues like taxes, communicating with his constituency, ethics, and making public meetings more accessible to the public. However, he did participate in the WCC Candidate’s Forum.

District 1 consists of the following precincts: Peachtree, Crossridge, Municipal Park, Potter Gray, Natcher, Grider Pond, Briarwood, Shive Kiel, Greenwood, Eastwood, Airport, Middle Bridge, Campbell, Hartland, Watts Mill, Steeplechase, Wrenwood, and Mooreland.
