We, the citizens of SeaTac are placing our trust in the democratic process by the direct election of each city council member. We have confidence that each member has a vested interest in the families, businesses and homeowners of SeaTac.

The council members vet and hire a city manager and if he does not perform to their satisfaction, they hire someone else. The perspective of a non-resident city manager is a good balance for our democratic system.

We do not believe another layer of government in the form of a mayor and his hired assistant is in the best interest of SeaTac citizens.

Vote "NO" on Proposition #1.
