Ellyn Saunders Candidate for LFP Council position #4

Ellyn Saunders and family

Hello, I’m Ellyn Saunders and I’ve lived in Lake Forest Park for 17 years, with my husband Brian. We raised our twins here, who attended Brookside, Kellogg and Shorecrest.

This is my first time running for a political position and although I don’t have the experience as a politician, I DO have 25 years’ experience as a registered nurse, playing a key role as advocate, voice and representative for my patients.

I decided to run for city council because I am now in a position in my life to be a voice and advocate for the people of Lake Forest Park. There are several issues that need to be addressed and I would very much like to be part of that decision making process, to be involved and present in the community and help to build a bridge to inclusiveness. 

The main issues that are important to myself and to many citizens I’ve spoken to are:
  • affordable and equitable housing,
  • safer streets for pedestrians and bicyclists,
  • mental health awareness and services
  • protect our trees and environment
I am an active community volunteer with the arts, education, Stewardship Foundation, and have served on the PTA Board of Directors.

I was raised by parents who believed in the value of integrity, dependability and responsibility. I strive to live each day by these principles. If elected to be your city council member, I will bring with me these values and use these principles as your community voice, representing each and every one of the citizens of Lake Forest Park and this wonderful city I feel honored to be a part of.
