Name, title & city/town: Douglas J. Nicholls, PE, RLS, Mayor, City of Yuma
Year elected to office: 2004
Years served as Mayor: 1st year
Years served on Executive Committee: New member of the Executive Committee as of August 2014
Born: Oceanport, NJ
Grew up: Yuma, AZ
City of Yuma
Incorporated: 1914
Population: 93,064
Elevation: 138 ft.
County: Yuma
Area within Limits: 112.42 sq. mi.
Why did you decide to serve in local government?
I was raised in Yuma and had a great childhood. After marrying my high school sweetheart, Danette, we were reflecting on raising
our children and longed for the same childhood for our children. So we returned to Yuma 15 years ago. Upon returning we made a
commitment to be involved in the community we loved and to do our part to give back. Through many years of philanthropy and
creating our own business, the road naturally led to running for mayor, my first elected office.
