Information about the two people running to represent D-6 on the City Council.
"As a city planner, Mark served our community with thoughtfulness, patience, and deep respect for residents' questions and concerns. He has been a longtime leader in making our bike and walking routes safer. He retired last summer, and I can't think of a better person to represent District 6 on the Common Council."
Katy Nelson
Middleton City Council President
District 3 Alderperson
"Mark has served our neighborhood, city and region for 30 years--in elected office, city government, and volunteer roles. No one is more prepared to lead and know the issues and opportunities our city faces. Everyone knows Mark because he is an extrovert and the third funniest resident of District 6."
Kurt Paulsen
Middleton Hills resident
"We think that once voters compare the experience of the two candidates, Mark is the obvious choice for District 6. We enthusiastically endorse him."
