Letter to the Editor: Jesse Salomon cares deeply about the entire community

To the Editor:

I am a resident of the Ballinger neighborhood in Shoreline. We don’t see many candidates in this neighborhood. I was impressed by Jesse Salomon when he came to my and my neighbor’s doors to see how things are going on this end of Shoreline. In speaking with him he seems to have priorities that match with mine: traffic safety with more sidewalks and streetlighting, trying to bring back living wage jobs to Shoreline by supporting local businesses and trying to prevent them from being overtaxed, maintaining our parks and trail system, and making sure the City lives within its budget.

In researching his campaign materials, I see that he is an active Democrat, is on the board of the Ridgecrest Neighborhood Association and represents them at the Shoreline Council of Neighborhoods. He is a member of the Shoreline Chamber of Commerce, and has helped build a non-profit for homeless youth. He is employed as a public interest attorney and has served in the past as a planning commissioner.

I am voting for Jesse because of his background, the fact that he cares deeply about the entire Shoreline community, and the issues that he supports. I hope you will vote for him too.
