ADVERTISING FOR CANDIDATES

6/23/25 letter to city and county:

It was good to see Blaine City Council oppose Blaine City Manager Mike Harmon's attempt to usurp their role in selecting a council member to fill the vacancy. Now the city council needs to make sure that the advertising is prominently displayed in a paid large size ad at The Northern Light, and that applicants have sufficient time to consider serving and filling out their application, rather than the rush job pushed by Mayor Steward.  

Since you have until September 11 to appoint a council member, I suggest giving people 30 days to apply, which gives you 30 days to complete interviews, and 30 more days to decide.

We want to give other citizens a chance to serve, now that the intimidating former Councilman Hill has resigned. This is an opportunity to welcome public participation, after three years of being excluded.
