I am honored to be Re Elected to Colfax City Council I will continue to advocate hard to ensure we get our fair share of State and Federal money, grants that help build our beautiful city and to ensure public safety is first in this rural area. I will also continue to fight hard to ensure that our civil liberties are kept in place and that our rural issues are not left unnoticeable. I also want to take time to Thank Kim Douglass for his dedicated 8 years of service to the community. I am excited that David Ackerman whom I endorsed for his 2020 campaign to serve our city made the #2 spot and will sit on council 2021-2024 season, he is a bright, hard working businessman that has been active on boards and dedicated to our community for 10+ years. Councilmember Ackerman will add a new perceptive to council and will keep your voice at his forefront. The new Colfax Councilmembers and City Treasurer Tim Ryan will be sworn into office at next week's regular 12/8/20 6pm councilmeeting.

Community Alert!!

FENTANYL ALERT: Overdose Deaths Rising!

Fentanyl is a powerful synthetic opioid analgesic that is like morphine, but it is 50 to 100 times more potent. In some cases, pure powder fentanyl the size of a few grains of salt can be fatal.

Fentanyl overdoses have been caused by the user ingesting counterfeit prescription pain pills laced with fentanyl. The pills are made to resemble true and legitimate pain medication such as Percocet or Dilaudid and the fake pills even have the same shape, color, impressions, and size.

These pills are ending up in the hands of young people who have no idea how deadly they are. Please share and talk with teens in your life to alert them. These deadly fake pills are around in our community right now. Granite Wellness Centers Auburn Police Department (CA)
