“Too often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”
John F. Kennedy
Jerry DiTullio worked hard as a member of City Council to learn the essentials of holding local office, particularly by successfully completing a Colorado program that trained participants in all aspects of local and county governing. I watched Jerry, as Mayor Pro Tem, apply his skills and what he had learned in serious efforts to get the work of the City Council done. It was clear he always stood by his principles, but sought compromise to find the best resolutions. When he ran for Mayor I was …
I support Councilman Jerry DiTullio because he is a ferocious watchdog of taxpayer money, advocates for private property rights and his politics are pure pragmatism and not partisan. Jerry is a tireless worker for the citizens of Wheat Ridge and the region. Jerry has the three I’s – Industry, Intelligence and Integrity.
Jerry is a thoughtful and intelligent candidate with broad experience. He will be an advocate for protecting our neighborhoods from high density residential redevelopment. Jerry does believe in sustainable and sensible redevelopment in Wheat Ridge without harming our diverse neighborhoods. As always, Jerry will strive to preserve the hometown feel of our community.
We are endorsing Jerry DiTullio for City Council. We think he has done a great job as Mayor. The projects and issues that he has worked on have always been completed in a very smooth and fair manner.
Let’s re-elect a proven leader for Wheat Ridge, Mayor Jerry DiTullio! I am confident that Jerry has the vision, experience and enthusiasm to move our City forward. I’ve noticed the improved circulator bus service for our seniors and elders. I was impressed by and thankful for the Mayor and City springing into action after the recent violent storm of 2009. Jerry is not only a proven civic leader, but is also an outstanding businessman, teacher, and father. Mayor DiTullio has definitely earned…
Right off the top, we urge voters to choose incumbent Jerry DiTullio for mayor. His challenger, Councilwoman Lena Rotola, has said her first and foremost thought is that no public office should be unopposed, and the two candidates share many of the same goals in economic development and planning. So in this largely non-adversarial comparison, we back DiTullio’s efficient, focused and responsive style, as well as his as diverse background in numerous Wheat Ridge organizations and related commit…
Jerry’s support for parks, our athletic fields and public art have been particularly appreciated, as has been his public outreach and information activities.
I have found Jerry to be tireless in his efforts to protect and promote the residents and businesses of Wheat Ridge.
I have personally witnessed Mayor DiTullio working to improve the business climate and the success of businesses in Wheat Ridge. Jerry works tirelessly with the city staff and community organizations to improve businesses economic success.
In the last mayoral election I was an avid supporter of Jerry DiTullio’s opponent. Since then I have been impressed with Jerry’s leadership and communication skills. His pro-active response to the recent storm is an example. In order to better serve residents and businesses, Jerry encouraged the re-opening of the free branch collection site on Kipling. He also brought forth the ordinance now in place to rebate 50% of the city permit fees for storm related damage repairs, saving me and many of my…
