Terry L. Dunn (born 3 July 1959) was an Associate Commissioner on the Alabama Public Service Commission. A native of Southside, Alabama, in Etowah County, Dunn was elected in November 2010, carrying 55% of the statewide vote. In his successful bid to win Place 2 on the Alabama Public Service Commission, Dunn may have set a record for getting the most votes for the least amount of money. He reportedly spent $8,000 in securing the Republican nomination in June and $9,000 to win the general election in November. Of 99 percent of state's precincts reporting, Dunn received 791,487 votes to incumbent Susan Parker's 639,792. As a member of the PSC, Dunn's duty was to serve the public interest by ensuring that financially sound electric, natural gas and telecommunications companies provide safe, reliable and quality utility services at reasonable rates for Alabamians. Dunn is married to the former Alicia Horne, and they have one daughter, Andrea.
Dunn is the owner of Dunn Development Corporation and Dunn Investment Group, and has held the state license in municipal utilities contracting for the past 25 years.
Among other volunteer endeavors, Dunn is co-chairman of the Alabama Institute for the Deaf and Blind board of trustees. In 2009 Governor Bob Riley appointed him to the board of trustees. Governor Robert Bentley reappointed him to a term that will end November 28, 2018. Dunn serves as vice chairman of the board and serves on its finance and operations committee as well as the facilities and property committee.
He has long been active in the Republican Party, serving on both the State and Etowah County Republican Executive Committees. He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention in 2004 and 2008. Dunn was elected as an alternate delegate to the 2012 Republican National Convention.
