Let's Fix the Port"
Background on the Port
The Port of Seattle affects our lives in many ways. The Port manages SeaTac airport, the container operations facilities in Seattle, some of the region's marinas such as Fisherman's Terminal and Shilshole Bay Marina as well as other terminals and real estate properties in King County. Whether you travel through the airport, work for a locally based company or go fishing in Puget Sound, your activities are affected by Port decisions. At the hub of the decision approval process is the Port of Seattle Commission, composed of five members elected by the voters of King County.
If you own property in King County, you pay taxes to the Port of Seattle. This campaign will shine a bright light on the way the Port currently spends your money. The Port is not only a steward of tax dollars, it also has a responsibility to manage key community resources. We will establish a new level of efficiency, accountability and transparency in all port operations.
Thom will be running for the seat currently occupied by Pat Davis, a pivotal seat on the commission. I intend to work hard and win this election. As a registered King County voter, your most important form of input is to vote for the Commission members.
