Government should not aspire to be all things to all people.  
Government should do the things it does do extremely well and at the lowest appropriate cost to taxpayers.  Elected office should not be a career, but a community involvement opportunity.  Local government allows citizens to be closer to the decisions and have more direct and timely input  into those decisions that affect quality of life, individual rights and property values. 

It is important for council members to be involved in the community through schools, city boards and commissions, non-profit organizations and by remaining accessible and visible.  By staying active locally, council members will get the important community input to help determine how Broomfield will differentiate itself from surrounding communities.
