Dear Commissioners,
My name is Shari Eslinger I live at 322 Stafford Ave in Bozeman.
I full heartedly support appointing Christopher Coburn to the City Commission. I support Christopher
because he is a proven and trusted leader who serves his community through whole health
education, relationship building, inclusion, and passion for community well-being.
His years of experience in establishing community partnerships and meaningful conversations
regarding public health, safety, and well-being align with the City of Bozeman’s mission and cannot
think of a better person to help represent Bozeman on this team.
His leadership is proactive and innovative. He leads with advocacy, respect, and acceptance.
He leads with integrity, continually advocating for inclusion of underrepresented voices in all
the spaces he occupies.
Personally and professionally he exhibits a servant heart that places service of others above
himself. He is personal, prompt, and beyond respectful. His presence and influence inspire
others to create a maintain a space for attunement, mutual respect, and growth.
He is a trusted leader in the community that promotes collaboration. He works with other
community leaders with the goal of community betterment in mind, with an understanding
that we are more successful together.
His professional and personal experience give him a familiarity with the community needs,
such as housing, creating equitable systems, and whole health supports and make him not
only well-versed in the subjects but also a great community representative and valuable asset
to the Commission team.
Thank you, Commissioners, for your service and consideration of this recommendation.
