Letter to the editor: Chuck Jons brings balanced approach, experience in leadership

Donna Wagner

Ames has broadly and deeply benefited from Chuck Jons’ commitment to community service over the past 40 years. Story County ASSET Board, Youth and Shelter Services Board, Ames Chamber of Commerce, Ames Public Library Board, Story County United Way, and Ames Planning and Zoning Commission are just a few of the venues where Chuck has consistently demonstrated transparent and trustworthy leadership. Regardless of the issue up for discussion, we have come to know him as an informed listener and a thoughtful decision-maker who is responsible to his constituency.

His vision for a vital Ames achieved through balanced growth, broadening of the tax base and encouraging entrepreneurs while safe-guarding critical social services and protecting our natural environment resonates.

Please join me in voting for Chuck Jons on Tuesday, Dec. 6.
