Philosophy
of local government: Government should not aspire to be all
things to all people, but should do the things it does do
extremely well and at the lowest appropriate cost to
taxpayers. Elected office should not be a career, but a
community involvement opportunity. Local government allows
citizens to be closer to the decisions and have more direct
and timely input into
those decisions that affect their quality of life, their
individual rights and their property values. It is important
for council members to be involved in the community through
schools, city boards and commissions, non-profit organizations
and by remaining accessible and visible. By staying active
locally, council members will get the important community
input to help determine how Broomfield will differentiate
itself from surrounding communities.
