LFP Gov Watch Dinner to honor first Communicator of the Year

Chief Steve Sutton honored

Lake Forest Park Government Watch is pleased to announce that LFP Police Chief Steve Sutton will be honored as the first recipient of Gov Watch’s annual award for Lake Forest Park Communicator of the Year.

This inaugural event will be held on November 18 at the Lake Forest Park Civic Club, 17301 Beach Dr NE. Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson will deliver the keynote speech.

In 2014 the LFP City Council included improving two-way communication as one of its most important goals for the following biennium. Gov Watch has continued to issue reports summarizing the progress the Council made in achieving its goals.

One unmistakable success story has evolved, with example after example of the superb leadership and focus by LFP Police Chief Steve Sutton.

Chief Sutton has implemented his plan for building communication with Lake Forest Park residents deliberately, consistently, and successfully for their individual benefit and the welfare of the entire community.

Chair Myra Gamburg says, "To pay homage to Chief Sutton’s achievement, to learn how he accomplished his goals, and to show your support for the issue of better two-way communication in our city’s public life, we hope you will attend the award dinner on Friday, November 18."
