LA Junta Tribune Scott Peterson, a longtime Coloradan with over 40 years of experience in community development, is the new mayor of the city of Las Animas. At the Las Animas City Council meeting June 29, Peterson was appointed mayor following a motion and a 3-2 vote. Councilman Dave Armstrong was the tie-breaking vote. After the June 10 resignation of former Mayor Jim Collins, who held the position since 2015, Armstrong was interim mayor for the 19-day period. Peterson was appointed over three other candidates: Terry Kim, Andrew Montoya and Frank Schmeiser. Peterson s resume . is very heavy in financials and major projects, Armstrong said. With some of the grant funding and with all the CARES Act funding and stuff that is coming down, we kind of thought that his financial background would be just an absolute asset to the things that are going on with the city. . He s very clued in as to what s going on citywide and he knows how to help.
