Pat Maddock maintains the entertaining and informative University Place: What's Up? blog that chronicles the local goings on as well as developments in the University Place real estate market. He is the former President of the Tacoma-Pierce County Association of Realtors, current Vice-President of the Washington Realtors, serves on the board of directors of the University Place/Fircrest division of the Tacoma-Piece County Chamber of Commerce and, last but not least, serves on the Economic Development Commission of the City of University Place. Mr. Maddock, a resident since 1953, offered the following thoughtful and generous endorsement of Linda's re-election:
In Linda Bird, not only do you have the leading
reason why our young city has accomplished so very much in it’s brief
existence but I and MANY other U.P. citizens see clearly that in this
dedicated,
intelligent and respectful public servant lies the most sound future we
can envision for our city. My public endorsement for Mayor Linda Bird
stands. I encourage each of you as enthusiastically as I possibly can
to vote for Linda Bird and more importantly to urge your neighbors to
fill their ballots out and return them before the 18th, too.
