Tucson's Mayor and Council has selected Marisa Stoller as the City of Tucson’s next City Clerk, bringing more than a decade of public-sector experience and a strong record of transparency, modernization, and civic engagement to the role.
Stoller currently serves as City Clerk for the City of Pueblo, Colorado, where she oversees departmental operations, staff, and budgets; serves as the designated election official; and acts as custodian of records. During her tenure, she led Pueblo’s first city-run election in more than 20 years, strengthened compliance with state and local election laws, and implemented technology upgrades that expanded public access and improved the efficiency of City Council meetings and records management.
“The City Clerk plays a critical role in our democracy, and Marisa Stoller brings proven record of expertise and integrity to serve in this role,” said Tucson Mayor Regina Romero. “From overseeing elections to modernizing records management and improving public access, her work reflects a deep respect for accountability and good governance. I am excited to welcome Marisa to Tucson and look forward to working together in service to our residents.”
Stoller holds a Master of Business Administration from Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business and a bachelor’s degree in English from the University of California, Berkeley. She is a Certified Municipal Clerk and Master Municipal Clerk through the International Institute of Municipal Clerks. Her background includes managing campaign finance programs, administering public records requests, supporting legislative processes, and leading cross-departmental initiatives in partnership with organizations such as Bloomberg Philanthropies and Johns Hopkins University.
City Council members also highlighted Stoller’s collaborative approach and focus on community-centered service delivery. In Pueblo, she implemented an online licensing portal, improved records request processing, and introduced workflow and technology upgrades that reduced staff time while increasing public participation and access.
“I’m honored by the trust placed in me by the Mayor and City Council,” Stoller said. “I look forward to working with Tucson’s elected officials, City staff, and community to support transparent governance and ensure residents have meaningful access to their local government.”
Mayor and Council will vote on the appointment at the Feb. 3, 2026, Regular Meeting. If approved, Stoller will assume her duties as Tucson City Clerk on Feb. 22, 2026.
