Watt continued from Page #3 another pod just like the one they just built "

Emergency Management is something that Watt says he has a strong background in For the nine years he was a captain, he was also operations commander and emergency management coordinator for the City of Sherman

"When disasters are going on, you respond But when no disasters are going on, you're planning every single day" said Watt "You're reaching out to people who can help you during disasters. You're getting equipment set up or you need 50,000 gallons of water from a store. I created the Emergency Management Plan for the city (Sherman) and because of that, I have connections all over Grayson County and can walk in to most government agencies and they will at least recall my name or face Yes, I'm a law and order guy, but there's a whole lot more to community standing and holding the rank of sheriff than just being a lawman "

Watt, 57, says he's old enough to have been there and done that but young enough to keep doing it He says that he wants the voters to know that he brings to the office an ability to recruit and retain deputies and civilian employees, train them and hold people accountable to the training he provides and then determine how to best make them successful

"If they're successful, than I'm going to come across as successful. That skill set that I was so blessed to have been given by Chief Caylor now comes in to play. It is the perfect skill set for this organization to help them meet the challenges that are coming." said Watt.
