Living within our means

Protecting our clean, safe, affordable supply of water for the long haul

Water is life to humans and all the other creatures with whom we share this island.

I’m running for a seat on the Water District 19 board of directors because I believe in these three elements of a thoughtful water policy:  We need clean, safe drinking water for the sake of our health. We need affordable water to keep the cost of living on Vashon within reach for all. We need to live within the water budget of our watershed and aquifer because we care about the long-term future of our community.

I respectfully ask for your vote this November.

Being retired I place high value on serving the community in which I live. I presently serve on the Vashon Senior Center Board of Directors. Since my 4 year term is ending I would like to use the knowledge and skills I learned at the Universities I have attended and  my service at The Boeing Company to help administer the activities of the local Water District.

My strengths are in providing customer service, strategic planning, financial management and process management and improvement.
