Rick Taggart, who is running for the Grand Junction City Council in District A, touts the accomplishments made by the current council, which he is a part of, but says his work is not done.
Taggart pointed to successful ballot measures approved by voters during his tenure that he said has led to investments in public safety, transportation, parks and cultural infrastructure. He also said the council during his time has supported Colorado Mesa University with aid for academic programs and scholarships for local students.
âMy job is not done, however, and that is why I am running for re-election,â Taggart said. âI am committed to helping our city recover from this terrible pandemic. At the same time, I want to continue to work furthering the diversification of our economy and implementing plans and infrastructure to enhance and protect our quality of life.â
