Plentiful, clean, affordable water is a basic human need. For 90 years, North City Water District has met this need—amidst tremendous growth and countless changes in water system operations, while maintaining infrastructure well above national standards.

Through 19 years as a Commissioner, I have an in-depth understanding of the unique role and value of a special purpose water district—from strategic water system planning, operations, and management, to regulatory compliance and fiscal responsibility.

As a life-long resident of Shoreline, I have sponsored neighborhood groups when the City of Shoreline incorporated in 1995, founded the North City Neighborhood Association (NCNA), and volunteered at the North City Jazz Walk, Celebrate Shoreline, and the Holiday Tree Lighting. As your Commissioner, I will continue to work hard for you and your family to maintain the high level of service you have come to trust from the District. I humbly ask for your vote.

Throughout my public service career over the last 45 years I have served the citizens of the City of Seattle and King County.  Fifteen years with the City as an Civil Engineering Specialist and Senior Real Property Agent and thirty years with the County as an Engineer.  I retired last year but believe I can still be of service to the Commission and local government.

The District operates under the authority of Title 57 RCW.  The primary function of the District is to manage the water supply and maintain the infrastructure.  The Commissioners provide oversight and have a fiduciary duty to protect the public trust.  I submit that my training and experience establishes that I am the most qualified candidate.

Throughout my public service career I have respected my fiduciary duty to the public and I have never betrayed the public trust.  I respectfully request your vote of trust.
