With the upcoming election of our Sammamish City Council Representatives, it is essential that effective decisions be made.

Before incorporation, King County ensured that the revenues from this area were directed anywhere but for the benefit of our local community. Sammamish, with thoughtful leadership, and sensible decisions, has demonstrated the value of being pro-active and responsible. So, it is important that we elect (or re-elect) those who have a track record of positive accomplishment.

As a resident of Sammamish for 25 years, I would strongly endorse the re-election of Valderrama-Aramayo to the City Council.

He has shown that his contribution to the City during his tenure has been impeccable.

We need strong representation if we are to achieve and maintain our collective objectives.

I believe this candidate has what is necessary to do the job.

Thank you, and please vote!

Ken Marsh, Sammamish
