Mr. Moorhouse is perhaps best known for organizing a group of citizens in District 9 to stop a proposed wastewater treatment plant. The efforts of Mr. Moorhouse and his group provided a less expensive alternative to a site built wastewater treatment plant, with near the same capacity while providing a much quicker pathway for growth and expansion in Ooltewah’s fast growing community.
Mr. Moorhouse said, “ I enjoy volunteering for the District I call home, I hope my efforts have made a difference. I have worked hard to make our schools and community a better place. It would be an honor to continue to serve the residents of District 9 as your county Commissioner. Together we can make a difference.”
Mr. Moorhouse is married to Robbi Moorhouse for 36 years. They have one son, Dr. Joel Dean Moorhouse II.
