My wife and I have worked over the past 12 years to improve education, health conditions of our citizens, living conditions for our elderly and food for the poor.
We support the YMCA, Lutheran Center, Tyee High School, Tyee Medical Clinic and the Highline Schools Foundation for Excellence. We are both members of the Rotary Club of SeaTac.

We are involved and committed to our community.

We have very responsible council members that discuss and respond to the citizens' needs and try their best to make SeaTac a community that we can be proud of.

A Mayortorial form of government will give "power" to one person instead of a well-rounded council form of government that represents all the people and is not corrupted by a few.

Our City works with and supports organizations such as the YMCA, Lutheran Center, Crisis Clinic, Domestic Violence programs and other organizations that support our poor, our crippled, our needy, our children and our elderly.

When citizens call for assistance our city steps forward to give support to those most in need. I personally do not think that will be the case if Proposition 1 is voted in. We will take a step backwards.

Having one powerful person in charge of our city would allow for corruption, disruption of city services and cost the city taxpayers more in both the short and long terms.

We would be paying for a mayor and a city manager.

The mayor would need a separate staff that would also cost more.

Our present mayor is a volunteer position served by one of the council members.

Why add something we do not need at a high cost to the taxpayers.

Our government may not be perfect...nothing is...the wheel may need a little grease now and again but SeaTac works now.
