Councilmember, Ward 4

I am a Colorado native and grew up in the Thornton / Northglenn area. I graduated from Northglenn High School and later attended Red Rocks Community College and Metro State College. I am married to my wife, Tammi, and together we have three children and live in northeast Thornton, near 144th and York.

For the past 20 years, I have served as a Denver Firefighter. My time as a firefighter has enabled me to develop and hone both my leadership and organizational skills. In addition, my service has given me the opportunity to interact and work with people from all walks of life, backgrounds, and occupations. It is these skills that I feel allow me to make a positive impact on the Thornton City Council and be a champion for Thornton's Ward 4.

I am committed to making sure the citizens have a voice in the way their city is run and encourage your input and participation as our fine City continues to grow. Together we can make sure Thornton remains a great place to live and continues to get even better.

I can be reached at the City of Thornton at 303-538-7530 or at home at 303-549-3946. My E-Mail is Eric.Tade@cityofthornton.net.
