Thank you for the trust you’ve placed in me over the last ten years that I’ve served as your councilman.  I am proud of the town council’s accomplishments and my personal contributions during this period.  I consistently supported sound fiscal governance without raising taxes and without sacrificing infrastructure maintenance and beautification projects.  I helped lead the town through a major update of the Shoreline Master Program, which largely preserved the residents’ use and enjoyment of the waterfront.   I strongly advocated upfront for mitigation to lessen the impacts of the SR520 widening project.  I chaired the Beautification Committee, which was responsible for landscape improvement projects at the town entry and throughout the town.  Looking forward, I stand ready to meet the town’s challenges and opportunities employing the skill I’ve acquired over the last decade as an elected official and forty years operating my own business.  I respectfully ask for your vote.
