Shari De Vries

9740 Elderberry Street, Denver 80260  I graduated from Westminster High School; later I attended Parks Jr. College and Colorado Christian University.  My family and I have resided in the City of Federal Heights since 1996. I am currently on the Planning and Zoning committee of Federal Heights.  303-319-0037  1) Transformational leadership style         2) My professional experience has assisted me in developing strong problem-solving and decision-making skills as well as the ability to work positively and embrace diversity. 3) To improve the image of our community. To attract new business for economic growth. To work in a positive manner with the community, city council and staff. 4) My approach will be to focus on the resources and the programs available to Federal Heights. Work with city councilto put a plan in place to implement and capitalize on opportunities for the benefit of the city.   5) The marijuana industry took the state of Colorado by storm, in which medical and recreational use is legal by the vote of the people. It is still illegal in the eye of the federal government. I believe once more states make recreational marijuana legal, more information studies and education on the pros and cons the issues will be resolved. I believe at this time it will be beneficial to revisit the use of recreational marijuana.
