I am writing this letter to wholeheartedly endorse Dana Staples for councilor-at-large for the city of Auburn in this upcoming election.

I had the distinct pleasure to serve under Dana while he chaired the Auburn Parks & Recreation Advisory Board. His leadership and thoughtful guidance shaped the group into the successful and decisive board it has become.

I know Dana would bring the same steadfast leadership to the City Council. Dana is methodical in his decision making, taking all sides into consideration, including unintended consequences of any matter at hand.

Dana Staples will be a councilor our city can be proud of. I ask residents to join me this November to vote for Dana Staples.

Misty Edgecomb, Auburn
