2003 Denver Mayoral Transition
Here's an story of Mayor-elect Hickenlooper's first three appointments from the Denver Post [July 9, 2003, "Hickenlooper's first three picks bring a mix of business, politics"]. The Mayor appointed Mike Bennet as Chief of Staff, Lindy Eichenbaum Lent as Communications Director, and Happy Haynes as City Council Liason. From the article, "Bennet will handle the daily chores of running the office; Haynes will reach out to her former colleagues and their replacements on the City Council; and Lent will face the media." Here's the coverage from the Rocky Mountain News [July 9, 2003, "Bennet named chief of staff"].
The Denver Post [July 8, 2003, "Pair of appointments offers expertise"] profiles Mike Bennet. They also take a look at Happy Haynes in this article [July 9, 2003, "Haynes to be eyes and ears at City Council"]. Here's are a few details about each of the appointees from the Rocky [July 9, 2003, "A closer look at Hickenlooper's first appointments"].
The Rocky [July 9, 2003, "On Point, July 9"] sounds off on Tom Sanchez being part of the Mayor-elects transition team. From the editorial, "Pardon us for being picky, but Sanchez does not exactly fit the taxpayer-friendly profile of professionalism that Hickenlooper advocated during his campaign."
