Meet Steve Gallant
After getting my degree in Political Science and Journalism from the University of Denver, I went to work in journalism in Arizona. I then moved to Washington, D.C. to obtain a Master's degree from Georgetown University. I worked for federal contractors and the federal government for seven years before returning to Colorado in 1999. My wife and I fell in love with Golden, a city with a unique combination of history, character, and charm. It took some time to find a house here, but ten years ago we made the city our home. We love to travel, but we are always happy to come home to Golden.I am running for the District Two City Council seat to help preserve the singular organic character of this city. In contrast to many developments surrounding Denver, Golden has a historic downtown and a mixed-use vitality. I believe it is essential to preserve these characteristics. Since May 2008, I have served on Golden's Historic Preservation Board, where I have worked to increase citizen participation in preservation efforts. I am also working on the ongoing effort to get the Golden Cemetery listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This will ensure that the cemetery, which dates from 1872, as well as its historic Depression-era cemetery building, will be protected.
