The most important issue for the Ronald Wastewater District is the use of the budget. Currently, Ronald Wastewater spends thousands of ratepayer dollars to defend the City of Shoreline's assumption efforts. Instead, Ronald Wastewater should aggressively review its contracts with law firms to determine where Ronald Wastewater can withdraw from litigation. With that savings, Ronald Wastewater could appropriate funds to increase low income and senior discounts. As Commissioner, I would advocate to perform that legal contract review and roll out discount programs using the money I saved to make a more livable community. Vote Paul for Ronald Wastewater Commissioner No. 5. www.paulforronald.com

The major issue facing our wastewater district is to ensure that planning for future growth and financial stability continue to be the standard as assumption moves forward. For the past sixty-six years, the Ronald Wastewater District has provided a high level of service and customer satisfaction. We need to ensure that everyone in our service area continues to be well served through responsible budgeting and wise asset management keeping rates and fees affordable for all. As density and growth continue to increase, planning for the future needs to keep pace and it is imperative we meet those needs in order to keep our water and environment clean and healthy.
