Overview-Summary

Glenn Church was elected in 2022 and inaugurated on 1/3/2023. He filed first SEI 700 form, an "assuming office" filing on 2/2/2023 . It was attrocious. He stated it was 10 pages long with a schedule C, but only 9 pages were provided, no schedule C, numerous fields totally blank.

Given his current wife (seemingly 3rd wife) Kathryn McKenzie, has been a reporter for decades, one has to presume she would have known of the disclosure requirements. Is it possible her elevated level of engagement at one or multiple local news outlets made them both feel that even if anyone found concerns, they'd never be able to get them into the media circus?

After 3 years of filings, Church really has not gotten a form filing correct yet -- and it's way beyond the slip of a pen or two. In 2024 and 2025 Church engaged in "bifurcated filing" where he provided different data set to the county vs the state.

We look forward to gaining an understanding of how or why he/they thought he/they could do this.

NOTE: Top photo is Supervisor Glenn Church. Bottom photo is wife and Journalist Kathryn McKenzie. McKenzie is photographed here because she was referred to as a business partner in numerous ways in his disclosures and it's her 12.5M+ in commercial real estate, her role as an Editor with the Local Newspaper that Church sought to conceal from county constituents in 2024 and 2025.

The SEI 700 forms for a County Supervisor should be the same at the county and state level.

In 2023 Church got his assuming office document to the clerk but the document was incomplete in multiple ways. The ammendment was then filed 45 days later but it too has gross issues. Those were then forwared to the state in patently incomplete manner (under perview of clerks) as well as fraudlent (not necessarily under perview of clerks) and the doucments were improperly accecpted by the state.

In 2024 Church engaged in "bifurcated filing" a procedural option that should NOT have been available to him. He e-filed one set of facts with the county that were vague and should never have been accepted. He then filed a different set of facts with the state 2 weeks later. Looking at the the county website, nobody would know a filing was made with the state, much less that it was different.

In 2025, Church appears to have started out on the right path with filing the same document with county and state, BUT he didn't. Although the 2 filings are 40 minutes apart, totally separate facts were presented via 2 different reports. Then he was forced to file and ammended report, but that only got filed with the state. The reason for the ammended report is unclear as not major data changed. Possibly to just get page by page signatures for future fraud claims.

Procedurally there are major issues, but what is revealed with a more indepth analysis is shocking.

More Details for State Filed Documents vs County Filed Documents
The documents filed with the state and county are supposed to be identical and it seems the state filed documents get reviewed for completeness in ways the county are not.

2023 - On 2/2/2023 Church filed patently incomplete document with state and county. Presumably, someone at state level pushed back and forced an amended filing to county and state on 3/16/2023 where a lot of blank and vague statements were more complete. Both documents omit 2 multi-million dollar real estate partnerships and board/director positions he discloses in 2024 . Also a concern he has omitted a 40+ year consulting business on this disclosure and all future disclosures.

2024 - On 3/7/2024 Church files document with the county that expose 12+ county level board/director roles that should have been disclosed in 2023 and he adds 2 multi-million dollar real estate portfolio disclosures in confusing and vague ways. On 3/22/2024, Church files totally different sets of facts to state. Generally the same entities reported with same financial numbers, but he provided completed addresses for all entities he had left out in the 3/7/2024 filing. He also provides totally different set of boards he was on, all of which were multi-county, while not disclosing any of the inner county boards. Anyone viewing his county filing would have not had any insight into location of his entities and investments and no clue how engaged he was in multi-county control schemes given those were only disclosed on his state filing.

2025 - On 3/2/2025 at 8:37am Church efiles form with the state. The multi-million dollar Freedom Real Estate Parnership disclosed in vague way in 2024 is removed and multi-county board and director disclosures are made. On 3/2/2025 at 9:22am a totally different form copy is efiled with the county. All detailed addresses are watered down to vague like year prior, and the 12 local board/director roles are disclosed while the multi-county are not. On 3/27/2025 an amended filing is made with the state. it's unclear at this time what was clarified or changed. Closer review in process. That amended filing is not made with the county.
