“Paula is an intelligent, thoughtful, and pragmatic person who cares deeply about our community. She brings a background in finance to the table and has an ability to break down complicated topics to an understandable level so that everyone can make informed decisions. She has also served on the Kid-Time Board of Directors by working to support and develop resources for Southern Oregon families. Paula would be a strong and passionate City Counselor who has her finger on the pulse of the community and can help make smart decisions to better our city.”

Dennis Slattery

“I am pleased and excited to endorse Paula. Paula has served our community with distinction on the budget committee and as the committee’s chair in the last session. Paula is a great listener and brings a great background to city government. She is deeply committed to Ashland and to creating a great place to raise her family, and welcoming others to do so as well. I could not be more pleased that she is running for Council Seat 1.”

“I support Paula Hyatt 100% for Ashland City Council! I’ve had the opportunity and pleasure to work with Paula on our HOA Neighborhood Board and she’s a leader who is civic minded, extremely intelligent, composed and diligent about the homework. One of her traits that I believe will be most helpful to the Ashland City Council, besides her professional experience in accounting and strategic planning, is her ability to explain complex matters in a very understandable way. She’s a great communicator which is an extremely important trait for City Council dynamics in what is likely to be very difficult times ahead. I’m very pleased to support Paula and intend to tell all my Ashland family, friends and acquaintances to vote for Paula Hyatt.”
