Greetings –
I am writing to make broader observations and comments related to the issues I have read about in
the paper and online regarding Mayor Mehl. I have known Chris since he was elected in 2010, and I
have always found him to be thoughtful, thorough, approachable, professional, prepared, direct and
attentive. We have not always agreed on issues, but I appreciate alternate perspectives and
discussion.
I understand that our city manager/weak mayor form of government has specific order for good
reasons, but I have watched over the years as many sharp and experienced commissioners
seemingly refused to take a back seat in the process. Mayor Mehl is no exception. We have had a
variety working styles in city management, but I find the current Commission/City Manager roster to
be excellent. We have many opportunities and even more challenges ahead and I am hopeful the
current team works through this and other inevitable bumps along the way and moves our fair city
forward together.
Sincerely,
Rob Pertzborn
