The statements below are written by the candidates, who are solely responsible for the contents therein. For the past several years I have actively worked for Sammamish incorporation and to protect our quality of life. My qualifications to serve on the Sammamish Interim City Council include working in government, business management and with budgets and contracts. I am fiscally conservative and my work experience gives me a good understanding of working with government regulations.
Public safety is a city's first priority.
Other priorities are growth management, infrastructure improvement, preservation of the environment and being responsive to the public. I strongly support an immediate building moratorium. Exceptions to this moratorium would be considered on an individual basis, e.g., a person applying to build a single family home. It is imperative we establish local control to shape the future of our community. I am committed to protecting our community and having Sammamish a model of the benefits of local control.
