I strongly support the right of
Bellevue’s citizens to adopt a charter. As freeholder, I would first
listen
carefully and then draft a charter that provides fair representation for all,
while preserving our high quality
of life and services like public safety and neighborhood enhancement. I am open
to change, but not
committed to any specific changes before hearing from fellow Bellevue residents
in the charter process.
My qualifications include legal experience in the private and public sectors.
I currently work with law
enforcement as the human resources manager for the King County jail system.
I care deeply about my Lake
Hills neighborhood, where I have lived for 10 years. I have been active in
neighborhood improvement
projects; in streamlining city government as co-chair of the 2001 One-City
campaign, and in supporting
youth as a member of an Advance Bellevue team developing a teen website calendar.

LeBlanc ANDERSON - Nonpartisan

As a resident of Bellevue since
1964, I have seen many changes in our city as it grows through its
adolescence, and seeks to refine its status as a center of commerce, arts and
culture.
As the city continues to grow, we need to maintain the vitality and longevity
of our neighborhoods, and
make appropriate changes to our government to reflect the changing nature
of our city.
In the interest of better Bellevue government, I advocate for two changes
that would empower residents:
the citizen election of the Mayor and the election of councilpersons
by neighborhood district. Districts would
allow an average resident to run for council without special interest
group contributions, and make it possible
to campaign door to door to gain support.
I serve as a steering committee member of Bellevue Charter Now, Vice
President of the Surrey Downs
Community Club, and am active in the local arts community.
