Steve Smith for Glenwood Springs
• Livable community
• Responsive government
• Engaged citizens
Living in Glenwood Springs is a richly rewarding privilege. The surrounding landscape, rivers, recreation and ecosystems are stunning and revitalizing.
The people here — inspired and informed by that incomparable setting — are smart, engaged, full of initiative and friendly.
City government is managed professionally and efficiently, embodying that landscape and enabling those people.
We have so much to celebrate and enjoy. An important form of that celebration comes through public service and leadership, each in our own various ways.
I am asking for your support to serve on the Glenwood Springs City Council.
I believe I have skills and experience that will benefit our community and our environment. I feel I have a duty to help.
