Support for Bonita Schwan for City Council

As a long-time resident of Marco Island, I have witnessed the growth and changes in our community, and I am proud to express my strong support for Bonita Schwan. Bonita is a dedicated leader with a proven track record of service to our island. 

Bonita brings a wealth of experience in law, accounting, and public service. She has a Bachelor of Business Administration from the University of Texas at Austin and a Doctorate of Jurisprudence from Drake Law School. Having served on Governor Branstad’s personal staff in Iowa, she is well-equipped to navigate the complexities of local governance and make informed decisions that benefit all residents. 

What sets Bonita apart is her unwavering commitment to our community. She has volunteered with the United States Peace Corps and served on numerous boards, including Big Brothers and Big Sisters and the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Recent accolades, like the President’s Volunteer Service Award and the Collier County Museum Silver Award, reflect her dedication to making Marco a better place for everyone. 

Bonita’s campaign prioritizes key issues that resonate with our community: clean water, smart growth, and environmental stewardship. She has been endorsed as a “Water Quality Advocate” by the Right Club of South Collier County and is proposing immediate monthly testing of our water quality to ensure its safety and sustainability. 

Bonita understands the importance of listening to the community. She believes in engaging residents to shape the future of Marco Island. Her positive, solution-oriented leadership style is exactly what we need to move our island forward with integrity and unity.
