King County Local Voters Pamphlet November 6, 2001 General Election CITY OF BOTHELL COUNCIL POS. NO. 01, 4 YR TERM Note to Voters: The statements below are written by the candidates, who are solely responsible for the contents therein. List of Candidates for CITY OF BOTHELL COUNCIL POS. NO. 01, 4 YR TERM Mike Noblet Patrick Ewing Mike Noblet     Since moving to Bothell 19 years ago, and serving on Bothell city council for eight years, two as mayor, I have worked tirelessly to make Bothell a better place for us all.     That includes preserving our neighborhoods by directing cut-through traffic to major arterials--not through our neighborhoods. To help in that process, we need alternatives like the 39th Avenue/Maltby Road connection, one that will open a full year sooner because of my work with the Snohomish County Executive.     City land use policies must protect existing residents from higher densities. Included must be trees that provide buffers quickly--not 10 years after the fact. And those trees must be protected!     As projected revenues decrease and service needs and costs increase, we must also improve our retail tax base but not at the expense of our neighborhoods.     It’s your city. It’s your vote. Please vote for me, Mike Noblet.     Mike Noblet List of Candidates | Local Voters Pamphlet Patrick Ewing     My wife Karen and I settled in Bothell eleven years ago. Good schools, excellent police and fire protection, and great neighborhoods, make Bothell an ideal environment to raise our four children. I am an aerospace engineer and software developer, and design test systems that ensure aircraft safety. I am active in the community as a softball and soccer coach, umpire, and league officer. I have attended most city council meetings in recent years, and am a current Bothell Planning Commissioner.     Recent City Council actions on the street plan, sewage treatment plant, and higher intensity development, indicate that many of Bothell’s best qualities are in jeopardy. Major decisions will be made soon that will affect us for many years to come.     I will work hard to address traffic congestion with sensible solutions, promote public involvement, encourage economic development without degrading residential neighborhoods, and stay within budget without increasing taxes.
