Child thanks community for another term

Many thanks to the heart-warming vote of confidence from the many members of our community who chose to return me to office for one last four-year term as your county commissioner for District 4. It was a difficult and odd campaign season for all of us running for public office, with in-person contact eliminated for me by my ongoing COVID-19 symptoms, turning this into a digital campaign.

I congratulate my opponent, Chris Council, on making this a hard-fought election, and for bringing up issues of importance to the community. Since I did not raise and spend any money for my campaign, I am making donations to the same organizations that I asked my would-be donors to give to, all organizations involved in providing food assistance to low income families who have been the most impacted by the economic fallout from the pandemic: Food Bank of the Rockies, Lift-Up, Highwater Farms, and Aspen Valley Land Trust. Please consider donating to these or other very worthwhile organizations.

Going forward I intend to continue being the best public servant I can, listening carefully to all citizens, treating them with respect and fairness, approaching the many issues facing us in a thoughtful manner with an open mind, and striving to reach solutions which are best for the betterment of our community and our natural environment. Thank you again for your support!
