Jeff Huff - Candidate - Mayor

My name is Jeffrey Huff and I am the fiscally conservative candidate for mayor. Since moving to CPN in 2000, I have led many community initiatives.

I was instrumental in negotiating the settlement of a legal dispute between CPN Master Association and a member HOA. I also serve as a director on the Castle Pines North Master Association, as president of the Hidden Pointe Metro District and as chairman of Colorado House District 45 for the Republican Party.

Our community has tremendous opportunities for growth.  It is important to manage that growth in a responsible manner. An important part of fiscal responsibility is running the city government within its means. Until recently, the city spent $160,000 per month on a single city services contract, an amount well in excess of actual revenues.

In 2007- 08, I served as vice chairman of the CPN Election Commission, which oversaw the drafting of CPN’s first ballot questions. When city council members changed the language of the ballot initiatives, I fought to keep taxes low and opposed last year’s ballot initiatives that would have raised property taxes to some residents by 17 percent.

As Mayor, I would end the infighting among special interests, promote open communication to residents, encourage business and residential development, and ensure adequate water supplies for our growing community.

I am a graduate of the Moritz College of Law at The Ohio State University. My wife Crista and I have been married for 16 years. We have three daughters that attend Cherry Hills Christian and Timber Trail Elementary. I am a strong supporter of initiatives that promote charter schools and protect the rights of parents who choose to home school. I am a Vice President and Estate Planning Consultant with Morgan Stanley Smith Barney where I’ve been employed since 1988.
