A candidate for the upcoming Coolidge City Council elections in August says that, if re-elected, taking care of the citizens of Coolidge will remain a top priority.
Councilman Joe Marsh is hoping to maintain his seat for another two years on council. He is one of six candidates in the 2018 council elections.
“The citizens have to know that they need to show up, voice their concern and if it’s a legitimate, reasonable concern then we’re reasonable people and I totally would understand where they’re coming from,” he said.
Marsh moved to Coolidge approximately 25 years ago, shortly after getting married to his wife, a long-time Coolidge resident. For about 12 years, Marsh worked at the State Prison in Florence and also maintained a side job with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement before going to work with ICE full time.
