Pondelick represents a new approach
I read with a great deal of interest your writeup on Scot Pondelick as "mayoral candidate" for the city of Auburn in the May 3 issue. He's the new guy in the block who appears to have fresh ideas and to possess a plan on how to improve the deteriorating looks and condition of this city.
Wrong name for downtown project
Project Lofts. Really? They couldn't do better than that for the new development planned for downtown Auburn?
Backus gets my vote
I support Nancy Backus for mayor of Auburn. Nancy has the best intentions for Auburn's future. She is also the most qualified candidate. She also has a very comprehensive financial accounting background with Boeing which will help move the city in the right direction.
Hail to Rosie, others who help those in need
A long time ago when Elvis learned to rock 'n' roll, when girls wore poodle skirts and saddle gloves to school and we were not able to "Google" into the private lives of other people, a little girl was looking for a nice place to live.
Kudos to our council
I am very glad to have a City Council that supports our community. The seven working together to accomplish good things, like the animal shelter.
Support Backus for mayor
I'm writing to voice my support and ask other citizens of Auburn to join me in electing Nancy Backus for Mayor of Auburn.
We're wasting money on the golf course
Golf course, golf course, golf course. I am so sick of reading about the golf course and sicker yet about all of the money that has been poured into it, and yet it's still losing money.
Thank you
A sincere thank you to the city of Auburn and Mayor Lewis for once again welcoming the National Day of Prayer.
County cares for the environment when considering a transfer station
In the interest of full disclosure, I am a truck driver who works for the Solid Waste Division of King County. I am also a 25-year-plus resident of Auburn.
Not the response I had in mind
Regarding my letter to the editor, "What about those eyesores?" (March 29, Auburn Reporter): Nancy Backus responded and said she would "enjoy a chance to talk to me about my concerns" and that she can "be reached via email or cell phone."
Backus has the skills to be our mayor
It is important to know your candidates, and I have known Nancy Backus since high school. I have watched her for years volunteering and serving our community. Her willingness to give is priceless.
