Meet Mayor Dan Shore  

I moved to Salida with my wife, Jill, and son, Gunnar, 11 years ago.  We were drawn to the small town feel and sense of community.  In addition, we fell in love with the natural beauty and access to the outdoors.
After spending 30 years in the mutual fund business I was ready for a change.  Having moved around so much because of my career I had never had the opportunity to get really invested in my community.  When I was approached about running for council four years ago I began  to get really excited.  Salida had been so good for my family and I felt compelled to give back.
After spending four years on council the idea of running for mayor was appealing.  Salida is faced with both challenges and opportunities.  I truly believe that in collaboration with such a strong, capable council and staff we can rise to the occasion.  We can in conjunction with the community plan a thoughtful way forward.
My commitment to the community is to be open, available, and fair.  I truly want to hear from you!
