Dave Bartlett
Dave Bartlett is running for Mayor with one clear priority: working hard for the residents of Portugal Cove-St. Philip’s.
A proud member of the community for over 30 years, Dave and his wife Carol, have raised their three children here.
Dave holds a BA, B.Ed. (MUN) and a M.Ed. (MSVU). He has an extensive volunteer background, including 25 years with the CLB Regimental Band, as well as directing The Mazol Shriner’s Band, where he’s been a member since 1997. He has also been a longtime soccer coach and was honoured as Portugal Cove-St. Philip’s Volunteer of the Year in 2010.
Dave has built his life and career here in Portugal Cove-St. Philip’s. Since Brookside Intermediate opened its doors, Dave has been there as an educator, mentor, and leader. Now, as he prepares to retire from a 35-year career in education, he’s ready to bring that same dedication and energy to serving the people of The Town, full-time, as Mayor.
As the most experienced candidate, having proudly served three consecutive terms on council, Dave holds the best attendance record of any councillor; a reflection of his strong work ethic and deep commitment to his community. He intends to lead by bringing respect and decorum to Council.
Dave is dedicated to protecting what makes our town unique, while working to improve services, supporting families and seniors, and ensuring all residents feel heard.
I respectfully ask for your continued support on October 2nd.
