In Alison Dance, we have such a person. She is a clear choice for local control of the La Plata Electric Association and the energy we use to propel ourselves into the 21st century.

Dance has a vision for creating solutions that make dollars and sense for our economy and our environment. This vision includes local energy production, greater efficiencies that keep more of our dollars from flowing out of the local economy and sensible rate structures that reward us for better use of electricity. They include real job creation and guiding an energy cooperative in tune with the very things that make Southwest Colorado such a great part of the world.

Our LPEA can be a model of responsiveness to and a genuine reflection of those it serves. Vision, experience, leadership and a keen ability to listen and act have made Alison Dance a successful Durango business owner, and will serve us well when elected as a board member of the LPEA.

Please vote for Alison Dance, LPEA District Four.
