Protecting Dover’s Financial Stability, Strengthening Public Communication, and Building Trust
Greetings! My name is Donna Mitchell and I am a resident in District 2. I have filed to run for City Councilwoman in DISTRICT 2. My husband, Wayne and I have been married for thirty years and have been blessed with two wonderful daughters and three grandchildren. I retired in 2020, as the City Manager of Dover. I am a retired Certified Public Accountant (CPA), and I have always strived in my personal and professional life for excellence.
My work in government with the city (combined 31 years) and as an employee of Playtex Products Inc, has helped me prepare for this next step in building a secure future for the residents of Dover. With your vote, my overall mission is to: stabilize our future financial well-being in city government, provide transparency, and build trust with those I represent in DISTRICT 2. Each year, I presented City Council with a balanced budget, while ensuring the daily oversight of operations, logistics, budgeting and forecasting, efficiency of constituent services, and effectuating change within city government. While working within the City of Dover, the City of Dover maintained the Award of Excellence in Financial Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association. I will continue to work hard and provide you with the representation you deserve.
I am asking you to vote on April 15, 2025, for me to represent you for DISTRICT 2.
