Letter: Writer for PitCo commission

In the makeup of a five-member Pitkin County Board of County Commissioners, I believe it is both possible and essential that the board include representation, experience and skill from a member of the wider business community.

We need a representative who understands and can explain budget impacts, development and the long-term effects of business decisions. We need a member who has an emotional, spiritual and personal attachment to the lands and lifestyles we all cherish. We need a member who is willing to reach out to and meet with the Pitkin County residents he serves.

We need Scott Writer for Pitkin County commissioner.
