CNW Endorsements

Dear Woodinville Neighbors,

Following the Meet the Candidates event, the Board of Concerned Neighbors of Wellington (CNW) is formally endorsing the following candidates for Woodinville City Council.

City of Woodinville, Council Position 6

Please vote for Al Taylor (incumbent)

City of Woodinville, Council Position 7

Please vote for Gary Harris (incumbent)

How did we decide?

CNW wants to ensure the City of Woodinville keeps its promise of "preserving our Northwest woodland character, our open space, and our clean environment." CNW believes high-density housing and the resulting increased traffic through our neighborhoods are in direct conflict with the City's vision. Uncontrolled growth or rezoning that destroys the wooded character in established neighborhoods would demonstrate that the City is abandoning its vision and the very reason for its formation. CNW views our role as a guardian of responsible growth which meets Growth Management Act (GMA) requirements and gives us the freedom of “self-governance” we fought so hard to win in WA State Supreme Court!

Why You Should Care

In the last few years, we have witnessed Snohomish County’s attempts to change from a rural golf course to a proposed regional soccer sports field to now a potential site for multiple schools. While a proposed settlement seems to have been reached, new developments in both Snohomish County and in City of Woodinville need to be monitored to help ensure growth occurs in the right areas where transportation and infrastructure already exist or are planned.
An unbalanced City Council could make decisions that would threaten R-1 zoning. For example, a vote to upzone any R-1 area to R-4 or higher (4 dwelling units per acre instead of one dwelling unit per acre) could force sewer into our community, costing each homeowner $35,000 to $50,000 for hook-up. This is not an option once a decision has been made.
CNW has fought hard to preserve the wooded character of R-1. We need to ensure our City Councilmembers will help continue this legacy.

Leaders are judged by their vision for the future—your vote for candidates whose goals are aligned with CNW’s Mission Statement will help form the lasting legacy with the citizens of Woodinville by providing a community in a rural tranquil setting that ourselves and our children can enjoy

Please vote for Al Taylor and Gary Harris

Warmly,

Your Concerned Neighbors of Wellington Board
