This is the first in a series of articles in which the candidates for Town Council respond to questions from the Florence Reminder & Blade-Tribune. The primary election is Aug. 2.
What is your age and occupation? Why do you want to serve on the Town Council and what are your qualifications and/or relevant experience?
Nicole Buccellato: I chose to run for Town Council because I witnessed this town grow to the size it is today and I have always wanted to give back to my hometown and serve in some capacity. I have also dealt with grievances and litigation for many years while working at the Sheriff’s Office, so I know how to listen and problem-solve when it comes to any issues at hand. I have great communication skills and understand what it means to be a public servant. I am a Certified General Instructor and have worked with many programs, schools, neighborhoods, veterans programs, public safety organizations, etc. throughout all of Pinal County to help educate and better our communities.
