By: Christy Green
Max Bain has served as Precinct 4 Commissioner for eight years, and is now running for re-election. Bain said his position as Commissioner gives him an opportunity to help all people in the precinct.  With most of them living outside the city limits of Atlanta, Bain stated that improving county roads is very important to him. "I'm thankful that I've been blessed with a crew of men that are very conciencious about the roads, and that are constantly trying to improve them," said Bain. According to Bain, some other functions of being Commissioner are setting the budget for all the county officials and all the offices and positions in the county, and also setting the county tax rate.
"The people that know me, know me as a conservative person when it comes to the county finances," he said.  "I think in this day and time with the economy in the state and the country like it is we have to be conservative with our tax dollars." Bain has lived in Cass County since 1979.  Him and his wife, Sylvia, have been married for 48 years and have two daughters, Kim Dodson and Mindy Rutland and one son, the late Max Bain, Jr.
