Carson City Republicans Meeting – Being Mayor of Carson City – A Conversation with Bob Crowell

Being Mayor of Carson City – A Conversation with Bob Crowell

The Carson City Republican Committee is pleased to have Mayor Crowell at our October 24 General Meeting to discuss what it has meant for him to be Mayor and how to get involved and participate in City Government. Mayor Crowell has led Carson City to the top 100 on Milken Institute Best-Performing Cities Index. Carson City made the second biggest leap in the rankings of 201 cities, jumping 78 spots from 141 in 2017 to 63 in 2018. Carson City was ranked third in job growth from 2016-2017 and 50th in job growth in the 12-month period between August 2017 and 2018.

After THREE consecutive terms, he has a lot of experience to share about being Mayor and in public office, this is your chance to learn from his experiences serving Carson City.

Mayor Crowell mentioned in his 2019 State of the City – “the credit for all the good things happening in the community we call home goes to you,” he said. “Government can do some things, but it takes you, the community, to build sustainability for succeeding generations and a quality of life that is the envy of all.”

Please join us in support and thanking Mayor Crowell for his service and let’s learn from his experiences. We welcome your questions in advance by sending them to Richard Nagel, 1st Vice Chair of the Carson City Republican Committee. Please send to [email protected]
