Why This Race is Important
Ensuring the local Summit governing body can thrive at the highest level for the people we serve is our most critical task. Our neighbors are our constituents, and for Summit to thrive and strengthen trust, we will focus on Accountability and Civic Engagement. This election is critical to Summit. It is an inflection point for residents. We know we can make progress and we think the details matter, not just the perceived outcome.
Among other things, we will bring you accessibility, practical governance, and common sense solutions that will allow us all to thrive together as a community.
