My name is Donald Henry and I am running for re-election as one of your Skyway Water & Sewer district commissioners.

My family has lived in the community for over 50 years and I recently retired from our local fire district after 50 years service. I have been a commissioner since 1985 and understand the needs of our area and have worked hard to provide you with a reliable organization that will meet your water & sewer needs for many years to come while keeping your costs as low as possible. Some actions for improved service is using our new wells for some of our water and applying for low interest state loans to replace and upgrade our aging water & sewer system. I am asking for your voter to continue this work.  

Thomas Jasen Gardner is a homeowner in unincorporated Bryn Mawr/Skyway; a Vietnam Era Veteran and a retired commercial ‘ electrician. For 33 years he has been the thankful husband of Linda Gardner, M.D. (retired) and the proud father of Tristen Sean. Tom recently graduated with a science degree from UW-Madison. Tom studied water hydrology to cherish the memory of his educator mother, Cladie Mae. She died from contaminated municipal water. This poisonous act is not isolated.

Water districts across America wickedly allow contaminated water for drinking. Skyway commissioners must work without prejudice to reflect values of the community they serve. The present and future of our safe, clean, healthy water is our mission for our seniors and children.

Together we can crusade for sidewalks, parks, and easements that help protect our water source. Fact: Neither the Environmental Protection Agency nor the State of Washington fully protect our water.
