To prevent that situation from repeating I am moving forward my nominations for the Commission.

Ms. Hunter is a relatively recent resident of Tukwila but has quickly become involved in our community through the Global to Local initiative and volunteer work with the International Rescue Committee. While serving in the Peace Corps she lived in Jordan, taught elementary school children and learned some Arabic which she is continuing to study. She is currently pursuing a Masters in Social Work at the University of Washington. I would also like to nominate Sharon Mann for the unexpired term of Position #7. Ms. Mann is a long time Tukwila resident who has been involved with youth sports, Soroptomists and is Co- Chair of the Tukwila International Boulevard Action Committee. Her professional experience includes 30 years as a real estate broker, residential land development and construction. FINANCIAL IMPACT None.
