6 thoughts on “Departing City-County Council VP Zach Adamson reflects on 12-year run

  1. Zach was an excellent representative. Always accessible and dedicated to serving his constituents.
    Thank you for your service Zach and good luck in your future endeavors.

    Also, wishing his successor, Jesse Brown nothing but the best.

  2. On the balance, I think Zach did a lot of good on the council. But there’s some mind boggling legislation he sponsored such as an anti-homeless ordinance only a few years after he voted against a proposal coming from Republicans.

  3. Zach has worked as tirelessly for our city and neighborhoods as anyone who has served on council. He was always accessible and responsive, voting conscience and partnering with others. I hate to see him leave council, but know he will find a way to continue to contribute in a meaningful way.
