Carefree Truth
Issue #1036, July 8, 2022

Thank you Mayor Les Peterson for your service to the town of Carefree! I met Mayor Peterson in 2017 at a spring event in town that he was volunteering in, and he encouraged me to get involved. He extended himself to teach me about all of the great things happening in our community, and continued to encourage me to come in and meet with him, the council, and town staff.
 
 
Mayor Peterson was instrumental in working with Liberty Utilities to have the sewage treatment plant removed from the Boulders. He helped in the water transition project for the west side of our town's residents in getting onto the Carefree Water Company service, and has been a steady, calm, reasoned influence on our community, from when the late Mayor David Schwan had to step down in 2015 due to health issues, to serving through this year in helping to prepare a new generation of town servants, led by our next Mayor, John Crane.
 
 
Thank you, Mayor Les Peterson for your mentorship, your leadership, your friendship, and your service to the town of Carefree!
 
 
Councilmember Vince D'Aliesio
