Norton's "A Word in Edgewise" Column
Tim Norton was elected to his first term in office in January 2001
and served as the Chairman of the Board of Commissioners in 2003.
He has a degree in
Journalism from Arkansas State University, and a Masters degree in Adult
Education from Newman University.
Some of Mr. Norton’s priorities as a Commissioner include:
promoting economic development in Sedgwick County and working on issues
and projects including the Aviation Tech Center, the Homeless Task Force
and south-side redevelopment.
He continues to devote time to the major 2nd district drainage
project; making time to get to know the needs of citizens, and
understanding the “big issues” Sedgwick County faces, such as workforce
development, transportation, jail initiatives, and tax structure.
Prior to his election to the Commission, Mr. Norton served as mayor
of Haysville for three and a half years and as a Haysville City Council member for
nine
years. He was manager of
Wichita’s Target Store East for 19 years, but retired in 1999 to
dedicate his efforts to the cleanup and recovery of Haysville after a
major tornado.
Mr. Norton is active in the community with the United Way, Salvation Army,
Exploration Place, National Conference for Community and
Justice, and Goodwill Board of
Directors. He is a member of the Eastside Rotary Club, Optimist Club of
Haysville and Wichita Wagonmasters. He
is a past member of the Wichita Chamber Board, the Child Abuse
Prevention Council and Communities in Schools.
In addition, he continues to teach classes on leadership, team work,
communications, and management skills as time permits.
Tim and his wife Susan have five children and five
grandchildren.
