I have recently met with the editor of the “new” Redmond Spokesman newspaper, Tim Trainor. I was very impressed with his professionalism and experience.

Kudos galore to Tim and his staff. They are all working very hard to make the Redmond Spokesman a paper locals, like myself, will be proud of. They are specifically supporting and inviting local Redmond entrepreneurs to participate in the success of the newspaper. As an example, they have invited a neighbor of mine and myself to write a monthly column, mine being the “ABC’s of Entrepreneurship.” I urge the Redmond community to support this vital local enterprise.

Let’s elect Ed Fitch a very experienced candidate for Redmond mayor. Electing Ed to this position means we will have a mayor with deep experience for hearing and working with a growing and changing Redmond population. Being devoted to community service he has served as chair of the Redmond Development Commission, the city attorney, and president of the Redmond Executive Association. He has also been a participant in the South Highway 97 Committee seeking ways to more efficiently move Highway 97 traffic through the city. He currently serves on the Redmond City Council. This experience and understanding of a wide range of community issues means he is well-suited to move Redmond forward from day one. Mr. Fitch has outlined a comprehensive list of his priorities on his web page, and I suggest you study his views for leadership on a number of important priorities for our growing community.

Elect Ed Fitch mayor of Redmond.
