GREENFIELD

    JEANETTE GREENFIELD emphatically supports keeping District tax rates at the lowest possible levels, while maintaining the District's high bond rating, and fiscally sound management practices.  Her commitment to all District residents has assured them affordable, high quality healthcare is readily available.

    An experienced healthcare Commissioner, Jeanette Greenfield constantly looks for the best way to allocate scarce resources for the greater public good.  With Jeanette this means respecting patient choices, preserving patient-physician confidentiality, balancing community diversity with individual spiritual beliefs, and effectively complying with complex, regulatory restrictions.

    Born and raised in Seattle's Wedgwood neighborhood, Jeanette moved to Kirkland in 1984.  Greenfield has a Masters in Business Administration and Masters Certificate in Legal Strategies.  An advocate of people living healthy lives through responsible choices, she founded the Washington Safety Restraint Coalition, passing the 1986 seatbelt law.  Jeanette was publicly recognized for changing community norms and legal attitudes towards drinking and driving as Executive Director of Mothers Against Drunk Driving.  Greenfield is Consultant to the Northshore/Shoreline Community Network, and Shoreline School District's Safe and Drug Free Schools program.  Jeanette was appointed as Commissioner in 1998 because of her professional board experience, collaborative expertise, and lengthy years of community volunteerism.

STYLE

    Since tax dollars and private money all go into Evergreen's pot, Evergreen's request for taxes is like the rich beggar in Las Vegas.  He was outside a casino begging for $10,000 for his wife's operation.  Someone asked, "Why should I give you the money, you'll just gamble it away."  The beggar replied, "Don't worry.  I've already saved enough for gambling.  Now I need money for my wife."  Evergreen has money, lots of it.  They become the beggar when they say they need tax dollars for buildings and community programs.

    If we don't give, they take.  They took $2M from our district and loaned it out, raised their executive salary 43% instead of filling staffing shortages, and used our dollars to subsidize services outside our district.

    Evergreen can provide community services without tax dollars; however, since they collect our money, there needs to be greater accountability.  I need your vote.
