Letter to the Editor: John Ramsdell will be a great addition to the Shoreline council

To the Editor:

As a Shoreline resident and small business owner, I'd like to reach out to provide my support of John Ramsdell, the candidate for Shoreline City Council Position No. 1. I have known John for over five years now and can say with absolute certainty that he would be a great addition to the Council. He has done a tremendous amount of service to our local area and is continually donating his time and skills to improve the surrounding community. 

John has initiated and worked with the Parks department in transforming a vacant lot in the neighborhood into the new Westminster Park, has organized and led many local volunteer events, and is a part of the Westminster Triangle Neighborhood Leadership Committee. With his 25 years as a mental health professional, he has also assisted countless King County residents through his work and truly cares for those around him.

I would also like to note that David Chen has withdrawn from the election as he has moved out of state, and therefore should not be considered as a competing candidate.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration of my support of John Ramsdell for Shoreline City Council.
