Dear Carefree Residents:
My name is Nakisa Azizi and I am honored to appear on the ballot for Carefree Town Council this July.
An Arizona native, I became concerned about the future of Carefree shortly after moving here in early 2023. Like many Carefree residents, I was drawn to the natural beauty that surrounds our Town and was distressed to learn that some of our last remaining open space was under threat of commercial development. Like our founders, I oppose needless destruction of the desert. But as a small business owner, I also understand the importance of generating revenue to cover our costs as a community.
Apart from prioritizing environmental stewardship, as Town councilmember, I will seek creative ways to increase sales-tax revenue that enhance rather than diminish the quality of life for our residents. For example, I have proposed the establishment of a destination, farm-to-table restaurant featuring local produce and chef-inspired dishes capable of attracting visitors from across the Valley. I have also proposed the founding of a co-op in the Town Center to increase access to organic, local produce and artisan goods typically only available at the weekly farmer’s market.
Finally, as a plaintiff’s attorney, I have made a career out of fighting for the “little guy,” and will advocate for my constituents as if they were my clients. A registered independent, I am not affiliated with any political party and am ready to serve as the voice of the people. To learn more about me and why I’m running for Town Council, I invite you to visit my campaign website, www.AziziforCarefree.com. I thank you for your consideration and look forward to partnering with you in keeping Carefree “care-free.”
Sincerely,
Nakisa Azizi, JD
