Dear Editor:

Steve Child, running for Pitkin County commissioner, is the most qualified candidate. He is knowlegable in land use and its management and knowledgable in water rights, agriculture, conservation easements and renewable energy. He has served on the Light Rail Transit Board and the Governor’s Energy Office and has served as Aspen Wilderness Workshop president.

He is balanced and fair and understands issues of wildlife, having been in the ranching business for 50 years. He has my vote for our next county commissioner and I hope yours, too.

Vote for Steve Child.

Junee Kirk
