“I am proud to support AJ Rounds in his run for City Council. I admire AJ for wanting to get involved and actually putting his money where his mouth is. So many people like to ‘talk the talk’. But it appears, AJ is willing to ‘walk the walk’. As a Planning Commissioner I see so often so many people complaining or wanting change, but aren’t willing to actually show up to make it happen. I appreciate those willing to donate their precious time to their community to do their part to improve and continue the legacy Mapleton has, that draws us all here wanting to raise our families and enjoy a beautiful quality of life. Taking time away from family and work and freetime perhaps is not always what would be the easiest way, but some are willing to sacrifice for the greater good, and as AJ put in his bio, to teach his kids about civic duty and hard work. I love that. AJ has also been successful in business and has always a huge support to me and my business. He is kind, friendly and a respected individual and the kind of guy you want making solid and sometimes difficult decisions that will affect our town for generations to come. I look forward to a new perspective and a fresh voice as we strive to keep Mapleton a place we are all proud to call home.”
