YIMBY Arvada's endorsements for the 2025 General Election
Explanations for endorsements are below.
Arvada City Council District 3
YIMBY Arvada is proud to endorse Rebecka Lovisone for Arvada City Council District 3!
Rebecka believes that housing "should be a foundation for everyone, not a privilege for a few."
"Affordable and diverse housing strengthens neighborhoods, supports local businesses, and keeps our community connected. That means smart, thoughtful growth specifically with multi-use zoning and education around ADUs. By making zoning clear, cutting red tape, and involving residents in decision-making, we can grow responsibly."
Arvada City Council At-Large
YIMBY Arvada is proud to endorse Mike Griffith for Arvada City Council At-Large!
Mike believes that housing "should reflect the needs within the community and that all levels of economic mobility should have a respective housing option. A wide range of housing types support a diverse working population."
On his own personal experiences, he says that "despite all of the development activity over the last 10 years, our modest 1-bathroom home purchased in 2014 was half the cost of the cheapest property currently for sale in Arvada today. This is an unsustainable problem that requires leadership and policy changes to address."
