Two candidates for council can do this

It was interesting to watch the candidates running for Durango City Council on their televised Q and A; from a man who is 31 years old to a woman with 30 years of experience running complex organizations.

All offer different worldviews and backgrounds. But Durango’s recent tax woes have created a much more difficult, much more serious situation for us all.

I’m voting for Barbara Noseworthy with her experience working on shoestring budgets with organizations needing infrastructure improvements, and Kim Baxter, who has a depth of experience and understanding with Durango’s issues.

I believe Barbara and Kim have the experience needed to help us prioritize our spending options in the next decade, and to make the long-term, strategic decisions on infrastructure that we need, and really hold city government to accountable to us all.
