I am supporting Kaye Fissinger for Longmont City Council at-large.  I have known Kaye for over two years and I have observed her tireless participation in civic affairs.  She has demonstrated admirable skill and determination in her work on such local issues as open space, storm drainage, mall redevelopment and wildlife preservation.  She regularly attends City Council meetings, studying the packet materials to attain a grasp of the issues equal to that of any City Council member.  She has made a deep, personal commitment to the future of our town.

Kaye’s background as an educator and a worker in varied industries gives her a breadth of experience that will be an asset to the City Council.  As a retiree, she can devote her full time to Council business and will make an excellent advocate for our senior citizens.  As a sitting member of the Board of Environmental Affairs, Kaye also has a keen understanding of the environmental challenges that face us.

Speaking as an unaffiliated voter, I am often disappointed by the performance of elected officials once they are in office.  While campaigning, they tell you they are going to pursue an ambitious program of reforms.  Once elected, they become another cog in a machine primed to serve a few narrow interests.  I support Kaye Fissinger because she is not a machine candidate.  When she presents her vision for promoting quality of life, economic diversity and sustainability in Longmont, I believe she means what she says.  She will dedicate herself to deliver on the promise of her campaign because she is truly independent and will not follow any agenda beyond what is best for the people and the future of Longmont.

I urge Longmont voters to join me in voting for Kaye Fissinger.
