Parker,

Thank you. I am so grateful. I am always amazed when I see how many of my friends and neighbors filled in a little circle next to my name. A small, simple, individual act that leads to such an amazing outcome for our community as a whole. I am truly honored to be your next mayor. I am more appreciative than these words I type will ever show. I am ready for this journey and will be thorough in my duties. My passion is this town, our town, the place we chose to raise our families and I will make her proud. Today is a new day for Parker and your Town Council and I will honor your vote with everything we have.

Hi Parker! I have a huge favor to ask. The link below is to my interview on Town of Parker - The Podcast. I truly enjoyed this conversation with Shannon and found her to be genuine and well versed in her questions. I just want to say that while this wasn’t a campaign piece, it is chock full of pertinent information. This is true me, who I am and how I represent you. Everything from our start at Fika and how that led to me having the honor of representing you in your Town government, to why your town operates the way it does, to the future of the Parker we all want. I know it’s an hour and a half but, as I said, it is FULL of info. This is not information that I can squeeze onto a 6x9 mailer, but actual history, decisions and facts. Please have a listen and please, please share it far and wide!!! Let’s take this town back on truth and duty and not succumb to the taglines and false promises of my opponent. Thank you Parker. I’m here for you. - Josh

I am so grateful to receive this endorsement for Mayor from Local Business Owner & Attorney Brian Taylor. Thank you for your support!

“As a small business owner and local Parker attorney, I am excited and honored to endorse Joshua Rivero for Mayor of Parker. I have known Josh for many years, and I continue to be impressed by his dedication and love for the Town of Parker. During my time serving as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Parker Chamber of Commerce, Josh went above and beyond to support not only our organization, but also the many small businesses that call Parker home. As a business owner in Parker himself, he knows the unique challenges that we face, and advocates accordingly. One of the things I appreciate most about Josh is that he is true to his word, and is a man of integrity. He will stand up and fight for our community and for our Town, and is not beholden to special interests or political influences. I am confident that Joshua Rivero is the best choice for the next Mayor of Parker, and I hope that you case your vote for him on November 5!”

I am so honored to receive this endorsement for Mayor from Former Chair Parker Cultural and Scientific Commission & Board Member and Volunteer Parker Task Force - Diane Roth. Thank you for your support!
“Leadership: I first met Josh when I chaired the Town’s Cultural and Scientific Commission and he was a Town Council Member. The Commission asked the Council to permit beekeeping in the Town. At the Council Study Session, he led the discussion. He had taken the time to meet with local Parker back-yard beekeepers to learn the facts. I have attended many Town Council Meetings and when Josh speaks, people listen. Business skills: Josh had the vision to establish FIKA in Parker and while so many small businesses fail, his are thriving. As a successful small business owner, Josh has the financial and people skills to interact with Town officials and the citizens in his role as Mayor. Compassion: Josh understands and supports the mission of the Parker Task Force in helping neighbors in need. Community involvement: Josh is visible in the community in many capacities. As a Rotarian he lives the motto of “service about self.” I recall when I spoke to classrooms at an elementary school about the work of the Parker Task Force, Josh was at the school as a volunteer. Joshua Rivero prioritizes Parker over partisan politics. He has integrity. Support your community and Joshua Rivero for Mayor.”

I am so grateful to receive this endorsement for Mayor from Chamber Member, Fellow Rotarian & Parker Resident Jon Rowlett. Thank you for your support!
"I’ve had the privilege of getting to know Joshua Rivero over the last few years through my involvement with the Parker Chamber of Commerce and the Cherry Creek Valley Rotary Club. I’ve witnessed a leader who cares deeply about the people in the Town of Parker. He’s demonstrated that leadership publicly in so many ways like working with the chamber to bring back Wine Walks. He also demonstrates it quietly in every interaction and volunteer effort he’s involved in. Joshua is a man of principle and character doing not only the right thing but going above and beyond when no one’s looking. Please join me in voting for Joshua Rivero for mayor."

I am so pleased to receive this endorsement for Mayor from Local Business Owner SuzAnne Cortright. Thank you for your support!
"In my experience as a resident of Parker/the Pinery for 26 years and small business owner on Mainstreet for ten years, I have only met a handful of people who are truly committed to our community. Joshua Rivero is an amazing asset. Not only did he grow up here, he is raising his family here, with his lovely wife, and has two coffee shops where our towns people connect with one another. Many of the organizations Josh commits his time to are not regularly recognized. He has been part of the Douglas County Youth Initiative, Rotary, COUNTLESS fundraisers, DBA, and supports other small business’s. I hope you choose to vote Joshua Rivero for Mayor."

I am honored to receive this endorsement for Mayor from Former Chairman of the Parker Task Force Steve Budnack. Thank you for the support!
"As the Chairman of the Parker Task Force I had the pleasure of working with Joshua Rivero for over 12 years. Josh absolutely understands the needs of our community and would always ask me how the Town could better as assist the volunteers at the Parker Task Force to succeed in helping our neighbors in need. But more importantly, when asked as an individual, he would simply say “How can I help?”. We would not be the food bank that we are today without Josh’s help and support, he truly puts the community first. Please join me in ensuring that Joshua Rivero is our next Mayor."
