I would like to thank Chris Bozeman and Stacy Carlson who ran for the open seats and congratulate Kris Yardley, Tara Richards, Mike Miller and Mayor Hirling on their victories. We had 415 votes cast, which was about 14% of our 2900 registered voters. Read here and here about the staggering numbers they won by – 76%, 78%, and 90% of the vote – that is a huge message from the citizens and an awesome responsibility.

It was neat to see all the volunteers waving signs and pushing for their candidates. I hope this is a trend to get more people involved in our city.

I am excited about our new council and cannot wait until 2010 to serve with them.
