I am pleased to have recently named Tracy Royston as Deputy Controller. By statute, she will become acting Controller when I leave office January 3 to assume a seat on the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas.
A member of my staff since 2018, Tracy comes to the post with a deep background in government and non-profit management. Her skills and experience, along with her important role in the management of the office over the past several years, have prepared her to assume this crucial job for our citizens and taxpayers.

The County’s transparency on the condition of its hundreds of bridges and its plans to repair those in need of attention is welcome and appreciated. Our construction inspection unit looks forward to working with the administration and its contractors.
