Letter | Elwood wants all citizens to have a say in city’s future

Published 2:16 pm Thursday, October 15, 2015

I am endorsing Brenden Elwood for North Bend City Council Position 5. Since moving to North Bend, he has been active in our community by supporting local businesses and being involved in our city government. Over the years he has shown his leadership abilities by serving as president on the Si View Metropolitan Park District Commission and also as a North Bend City Planning Commissioner focusing on the future growth and welfare of our city.

It is important to Brenden that all residents of North Bend have a say in their city’s future, not just a select few. Brenden has taken time to go door-to-door and talk with people to find out about their concerns, needs and wants for our city.

He is driven to keep North Bend a place for families to enjoy activities like hiking or playing in our beautiful parks and also ensuring that the growth of our city includes plans to keep its local businesses thriving.

He is about evaluating all sides of current issues through listening to the citizens of North Bend and helping come up with a plan that will work best for the community.

Brenden is not afraid to stand up for what he believes in nor point out any injustices. He brings fresh new ideas to the city government and this is why I am voting for Brenden Elwood.
