ENDORSEMENTS
I am proud to support Dr. Parth Melpakam for City Council District 6. Parth has the deep experience and the wise judgment we need on the City Council. As president of the D11 school board and in other community roles, Parth has demonstrated his outstanding leadership abilities. Our community is fortunate that now Parth is ready to take the next step in his public service. Please join me in supporting Parth for City Council.
A candidate for elected office must demonstrate one main quality in order to gain my support. He should not only listen to his constituents’ concerns, but respond to their phone calls, texts and emails. Parth Melpakam has shown me he is responsive to taxpayers’ issues in School District 11 and is committed to serving Colorado Springs in the same way. Therefore, he has my support for District 6 Councilman and I wish him every success in that role.
I fully endorse Parth Melpakam for City Council District 6. Having served previously as the District 6 representative on City Council and the Utility Board of Directors, I know firsthand what the job entails. Parth Melpakam is a proven, conservative representative who listens to the people he serves. He has served his community and been elected to the School District 11 Board of Education not once but, twice and then elected by his peers as the President of the Board. He has taken on difficult fights. The kids and his community have always come first. He has the resume and the experience I want to see when supporting a person to serve the fastest growing, most challenging part of Colorado Springs. Let us go with the proven experience. Join me in supporting Parth for City Council, District 6.
