Snoqualmie, WALocal News

Tim Harris, former Deputy Mayor of Carnation, strongly supports Sarah Perry's re-election to the King County Council, citing her impressive track record of nearly $250 million in investments for the Snoqualmie Valley. He details specific achievements, including increased transportation funding and grants for local charities and the arts. In contrast, Harris criticizes Perry's opponent for lacking a coherent plan and relying on external audits following a local embezzlement scandal. He notes that Perry's relationships with influential leaders facilitate access to vital resources for the community. Harris argues that under Perry’s leadership, the Valley has transformed into a cultural destination, benefiting local businesses and preserving its natural beauty.

He asserts that re-electing Perry will maintain the momentum of progress achieved in recent years. Ballots are set to arrive around October 16th, urging voters to consider the future of their community.
