Committee to Elect Stan Gunno

Dear Neighbor,

What Sammamish becomes tomorrow will be determined by the quality of leadership we have today. That’s why I’m running for Sammamish City Council.

You may have known me for several years. What you may not know about me is also important. I run and own a business that operates in our area, and I have been directly involved in our community over the years. I have a strong record of public service – working on national, state, county and community issues that affect our quality of life – and I am ready to formally serve our city.

I understand the issues facing our local government, and I am running to build community, not to leave a legacy. Please take a look at my positions on the issues, and my record of service before you decide.

On the Issues …

“I will listen to the people of Sammamish, ask the hard questions and provide results!”

I support strong public safety agencies and am proud of Sammamish’s Police and Fire Departments. I will fight to fully fund their needs!

I will make certain the city has the necessary services and programs in place to respond to emergencies, especially in order to protect and to help our elderly, physically disabled, and citizens with special needs.

Levelheaded fiscal responsibility is the key to success. I will provide leadership to keep our city running like a successful business.

I will fight to keep spending in line with city growth so our property taxes will not have to be raised.

I will make sure that proper infrastructure comes with any new development that fits our community.

I will create a realistic, long-term fiscal plan to protect the diverse priorities of the Plateau community, including safe neighborhoods, well-maintained parks and trails, recreational facilities and programs, along with a vibrant business district.
