Bio

Hello. I am Heather Nesemeier, Candidate for Ward 2, City of Moorhead. Thank you for taking the time to check out my page and learn more about your City Council candidates.

I currently serve on the Moorhead City Council.  I was appointed on May 10, 2021, after a previous council member vacated their seat. With one year under my belt, I have started to make progress in areas important to our community. I am excited to ask you to vote for me in November so that I can continue working to improve the quality of life for everyone living in Moorhead. 

I have a long history of advocacy, volunteering, and gardening -- personally and in community service. I have a passion and track record for improving access to healthy foods. I am an active union member and co-parent to a proud Spud. I have always been deeply engaged with the people and schools in our community, and strive to be a strong leader to support our growing, thriving, resilient city.

Since serving on the Moorhead City Council I have not missed a single Council meeting. Through work on the Solid Waste Advisory Council, I have had the opportunity to work on intergovernmental collaborations to improve shared facilities, encourage best practice use, and explore new opportunities for our community. I have been honored to serve our community and proud of my work to improve our resilience.
