This event is designed to bring the community together in a relaxed, welcoming setting where real conversations can happen. By hosting a casual coffee meet-up, Dave Marlon is creating an opportunity for neighbors to connect not just with a candidate, but with one another. People can share concerns, exchange ideas, and feel heard in a space that’s comfortable and familiar. A strong community is built through relationships, dialogue, and showing up for one another. For Dave, this event reflects how he approaches leadership. He believes that effective city council members don’t lead from a distance: they listen, engage, and stay connected to the people they serve. This monthly gathering isn’t about speeches or spectacle; it’s about trust, accessibility, and building the kind of civic connection that leads to better representation and better outcomes for Ward 6.
