Hello! My name is Andrew and I am seeking re-election to the Erie Town Council in the upcoming November 2024 election.
As a current Council Member, former Planning Commissioner, and a former Comprehensive Plan Amendment Steering Committee member for the Town, I have worked to improve the proper planning necessary for Erie's future.
During the past 2-1/2 years as your Council Member, I have strived to be your voice - asking the tough questions that need to be asked when others wouldn’t. I have advocated for fiscal responsibility of your hard earned tax dollars. And I have taken actions that prioritize management of the Town’s growth.
Since there is much more that needs to be done at Town Hall — and because Erie resident’s deserve leaders who remain Forward Thinking for Erie’s Future — I humbly request your support again, and ask for the honor and privilege of representing the Town’s Boulder County residents in District 1.
As Council Member, I will continue to bring leadership that addresses the areas of:
Maintain a Critical Eye on the Town's Finances
Since 2022, Town Hall's operating expenses have increased by 55%, capital expenses have increased by 108%, but revenues have only increased a mere 15%. While the Town's finance team has been informing the Council of this impending future to come, the Council majority has not heeded these warnings. It is critical that the Town avoids a domino effect that could potentially impact our ability to fund things as simple as maintenance of our roads.

In order to set our Town up for the best chances for success, a plan must be created that provides us with an ability to manage our current and future growth. The blueprint below is designed to do just that.
