Choose Carolyn Cox for Lacey City Council

Lacey is a city that is growing rapidly. To manage this growth, a candidate for the City Council ideally should have a good working knowledge of what it is going to take to ensure a bright future for residents both new and old. An ideal candidate also would have personal attributes such as intelligence, a calm demeanor, good listening skills, and the ability to work well with others to get things done.

Fortunately for Lacey, there is a candidate that meets and exceeds these ideals. That candidate is Carolyn Cox, Lacey's Planning Commission Chair, who is in the running for Position 7 on the Lacey City Council. I served with Carolyn for three years on the Planning Commission. We developed a lasting friendship, and I found that she was always thoughtful, considerate of others and clearly has the knowledge needed to serve as an elected government official. Please join me in voting for Carolyn Cox for Lacey City Council.
