Statement: As your councilor, I will bring a wealth of experience and extensive knowledge of Maple Valley. My long record of community service demonstrates my dedication to my home town. I am independent, honest, unbiased, and ethical, and I am willing to represent the community rather than special interests. I embrace change but I have not lost track of the community’s values. I have the vision to see the “big picture” without losing sight of the details. I strive to be well informed, I make meaningful contributions to deliberations, and I work collaboratively. I am willing to forge compromise when needed to get things done. I am a strong proponent of expanded economic development and family-friendly amenities. I am a leader, not a follower, I am committed to our community, and I will do the “heavy lifting” needed to make Maple Valley THE place to live from cradle to grave.
For too long now, Maple Valley’s city council has had its heels dug into agendas that have not allowed our community to use its growth for our mutual benefit. It’s time for a change; a new leader who will guide the council to be proactive, forward-thinking, and decisive.
I believe it is time to have a vision that allows Maple Valley to catch up to its current growth and beyond. It is time to have a vision that creates the best opportunity for our youth by developing programs and parks that meet their needs. It is time for us to have a vision that allows Maple Valley to move forward in this new century without losing the natural charm of what brought us all here in the first place.
I’m asking for your vote to bring leadership and accountability to the City Council. Learn more at www.Bill2009.com

Statement:
WE MUST PREVENT CONFLICT OF INTEREST! - - - - WE ALSO DON’T WANT TO BE ANOTHER COVINGTON.
Maple Valley has a unique history and future. Maple Valley has changed from the small city of the past to face a need for regional representation. In four years on City Council I have served as Deputy Mayor, served on the Puget Sound Regional Council Executive Committee, served as Vice Chair of the SCA King Conservation District committee and served on the Communities that Care committee.
As a member of a family having lived and publicly served in Maple Valley for many decades, I love what Maple Valley can be. As the only accounting business owner serving on the Council, I realize in this economy we must maintain fiscal conservatism and accountability. We need Maple Valley solutions for Maple Valley problems. Visit my website at http://www.ReelectGlennTSmith.com and I would appreciate your vote.
