I am wholeheartedly supporting the re-election of Deborah Stinson to the Port Townsend city council.
As a former city employee, I have worked with and observed Stinson closely during her tenure as council member and mayor.
She is exactly the knowledgeable, experienced and compassionate person needed during this transitional period.
She is adept at balancing council policy, existing legislation and public input to come to the best outcome for all the citizens of Port Townsend.
If a popular issue cannot be resolved to please everyone, she is able to give reasoned and logical explanations to support the council’s conclusions.
She works hard, does her homework and is not afraid of tough decisions.
She understands details and sees the big picture.
She is available and responsive to other elected officials, organizations, staff and individual community members.
I believe there could be no better person than Deborah Stinson to represent the interests of the citizens of Port Townsend for the next four years.
Pamela Kolacy,
