Something different for Pocatello
Dakota applied and was appointed to the Pocatello City Council because he felt Pocatello needed something different. It needs leaders who are kind, hopeful, and honest about the good and the bad. He has made an immediate impact by engaging with the public, building relationships with City staff, and by advocating for robust and civil debate among council members.
Leading from the heart
“It is an honor and privilege for me to be one of only six people representing all of Pocatello. I want you to know that I love this place we call home. I love Pocatello because of its people and what we stand for; Kindness, Character, Determination, and Pride in being a citizen of Pocatello.”
