Dear Friends,

San Miguel County is one of the most beautiful places in the world to live. As your Commissioner I will work hard to make it more affordable for residents, preserve our communities and continue my efforts to protect our natural resources.

Local government should be an invitation to collaborate and develop solutions that address county issues.

I will listen and do my best to represent the residents of District 1 and all of San Miguel County.

Please vote Hilary Cooper for District 1 in the Democratic primary on June 28, 2016.

Your neighbor,

Hilary White Cooper

Endorsements

I served with Hilary on the Telluride Town Council. She began her term as a passionate conservationist, but was quickly and effectively able to jump into a leadership role on the development of affordable housing. She did more than just talk about the need, actively participating to make it happen. In addition, Hilary’s comprehension of the financial implications of complex decisions made her an invaluable member of the team.
