A Note from Robin
The honor of a lifetime. That’s what twelve years representing you on Denver City Council have been. And challenging. And interesting. And fun.
As Denver has changed, grown or even faced a pandemic – I’ve focused on the pillars that support quality of life for Denver families: good jobs that earn enough to live here, access to housing working families can afford in inclusive and healthy neighborhoods throughout a city that is sustainable for future generations.
Together, we’ve transformed Denver. While more work remains, your next generation of city leaders have a foundation of resources and policy tools to build upon. But governing is a team sport, so please stay engaged with them as you have with me. Together, Denver can build on the progress we’ve made and grow outcomes for the people who depend on us.
