Allen for Marysville City Council | LETTER TO THE EDITOR

I read the Everett Herald’s recent article endorsing various candidates for the upcoming Marysville City Council race with interest. Unfortunately, the information on Scott Allen who is running for Position 5 was all too brief. In my association with Scott, I have found him to be incredibly well read and versed about the challenges Marysville faces; he has lived in Marysville for a long time and is a tireless volunteer with church, Kiwanis and the Masons.

I read the Everett Herald’s recent article endorsing various candidates for the upcoming Marysville City Council race with interest. Unfortunately, the information on Scott Allen who is running for Position 5 was all too brief. In my association with Scott, I have found him to be incredibly well read and versed about the challenges Marysville faces; he has lived in Marysville for a long time and is a tireless volunteer with church, Kiwanis and the Masons.

He is passionate about finding creative solutions to local issues such as traffic control, understanding that the city’s economic condition needs to be factored into any solution that Council may come up with and he is hard working, highly motivated and anxious to get into office and work tirelessly on behalf of our citizens. He has a great deal of administrative and management experience and would be happy to share that with the citizens of Marysville.

I urge all voters to vote for Scott Allen for City Council on Nov. 8.
