Shoreline Council candidates in primary to appear at July 14 forum at RB Congregational

The three candidates running in the primary for a position on the Shoreline City Council will appear in a forum Tuesday, July 14, at the Richmond Beach Congregational Church.

Incumbent Councilman Jesse Salomon and challengers Michael Bachety and Lorn Richey will speak and answer questions in the forum scheduled for 7-8pm in Pilgrim Hall off the lower parking lot of the church at the corner of NW Richmond Beach Road and 15th Avenue Northwest (1512 NW 195th St).

The three are running for Council Position No. 6, the only Shoreline position on the Aug. 4 primary-election ballot. The primary will narrow the field to two for the Nov. 3 general election.

The church’s peace and justice board and the Shoreline Area News are the sponsors of the event. 

Two other Shoreline council positions will appear only on the November ballot because they have only one or two candidates each. Three Shoreline School Board positions, one spot on the Shoreline Fire Department board, one place on the North City Water District board and three positions on the Ronald Wastewater District board all will appear only on the general-election ballot.
