Cathy Noon, Former Mayor

 “Mayor Stephanie Piko has my hearty support!

Leadership in good times is easy, in bad times challenging. But the uncharted times our community has   recently faced call for a leader that is steadfast yet adaptive, thoughtful yet resilient and certainly innovative.  Stephanie has been just that leader.

During my terms as Mayor, Stephanie was a highly effective councilmember - in and outside her District.  She brought thoughtful ideas and discussions to the table and followed through on every matter- from stormwater to technology, to roads and open space. While she was Mayor Pro Tem, I saw her effectively work through issues and guide them into positive outcomes.   Stephanie’s leadership in bringing Centennial’s FiberWorks project to fruition has been instrumental to its success and extremely beneficial to our city.

Please join me in reelecting Mayor Stephanie Piko so that Centennial’s residents, businesses, parks & open space continue to flourish.  The community we love depends on it!”
