Thank you to everyone for your support in my campaign! As I embark upon the journey of being a City Councilor, I want to ask for your insights, ideas and concerns. I have created an email list in order to communicate with you and hear from you. (If you do not wish to receive future emails, please let me know & I will remove your name from the list.)
It has been an interesting few weeks and quite a bit of fun! I have been focusing on accountability and expense management. As time goes by, I would like to ask for your help on important topics and create working groups to give me guidance and expertise on courses of action.
Additionally, I will be communicating on the upcoming issues the council will be addressing and would like to have feedback from your perspective. Please forward this email to others who might be interested in being on this communication list. Let them know to email me and I will add them to the list.
We just completed the City Council retreat. It was enlightening in many ways. A brief list of my initial takeaways is:
The adage that the “wheels of government turn slowly” is true and it will be a challenge for me to deal with that. However, I am encouraged by the direction that City Council is taking around several important issues.
I would like to hear from you – email me (kimbaxter@durangogov.org) or call me (970/799-5799) whenever you have concerns or just an interesting comment to make!
