I am endorsing and supporting Taylor, Combs and Nash for MP Council and Ballard, McLaughlin and Jones for the Fire Board because I think local government needs new leadership. That is also why I decided not to run for re-election to the Fire Board.

According to the editorial:

“(Keith and Ohtaki) were part of a four-member council majority that ignored Councilman Ray Mueller's request to discuss a proposal aimed at increasing transparency by requiring council members to make their calendars of council-related meetings with others — developers, businesses, residents and others — available to the public.”
