Commissioner Jones honored for public service

Carroll County Commissioner Perry L. Jones Jr. was honored April 27 with his alma mater Linganore High School’s Distinguished Graduate Award for Public Service. A member of the class of 1970, he is only the third recipient of this award.

Jones served on the Union Bridge Town Council for 10 years, from 1980 until 1990, when he was elected mayor. He served as mayor until 2002. That year, he was elected to an at-large seat on the Board of County Commissioners.

In 2005, Jones was selected as Maryland’s sole representative at the County Leadership Institute at New York University’s Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service.

He sits on the board of directors for the Maryland Association of Counties, serving as its treasurer in 2005. He also belongs to the Maryland Mayors Association and served on the Maryland Municipal League board of directors from 1998 to 2002. He was inducted into MML’s Hall of Fame for his public service.

In addition to his public offices, Jones has volunteered with the Union Bridge Fire Company for nearly 30 years. He was captain of the ambulance company and served on the fire company’s board of directors.

He is a member of the Union Bridge Lions Club and an American Community Leadership semi-finalist.
