Master Builders Association, which advocates a minimum density of seven houses per acre (R-7) throughout our city, is actively campaigning against CNW endorsed candidates Susan Boundy-Sanders, Jeff Glickman, and Peter Tountas. In recent phone calls to Woodinville citizens the MBA endorsed candidates they felt were receptive to their agenda. In a newsletter to their membership they did the same
Then it's time for change in City Council where the power lies. Traffic is the citizen's over-riding concern. Yet City Council is ignoring our pleas. It has mishandled the Woodinville budget for capital improvements. Money which, appropriately handled, would have been applied to ease our traffic congestion and make our streets safer. (More info on troubled projects) If this doesn't sound good to you - vote and vote wisely for your new City Council members.
Five candidates applied for the vacated City Council position. Filling this position was the sole responsibility of the Council. In public hearing four candidates spoke to the need for improving traffic, enhancing public safety, managing the City budget, and self-determining growth and demonstrated well-researched plans for implementation. Four candidates were experienced in such matters and had demonstrated continuing commitment to the City planning process. Did the City Council select the candidate who was best able to help lead our city? We think not. Judge for yourself by watching the proceedings (especially the last 20 to 30 minutes). This important outcome was barely mentioned by the Woodinville Weekly. So vote and vote wisely.
Vote. Watch or better yet attend City Council meetings. Write editorials to the Weekly. Give money to CNW to cover expenses (Donate Now!). Volunteer for the CNW Board. Talk to your neighbors. Give support to the various City commissions.
