Linda has received the endorsement of The News Tribune.
"If anybody on the University Place City Council embodies the spirit of the city, it is Bird.
She was the campaign manager for UP’s cityhood effort in 1994, and
was called “the mother of incorporation” in tribute to her leadership.
She is one of five remaining members of University Place’s first City
Council who took office in May 1995, and now she is seeking another
term.
Voters should give it to her – not just as payback for the
hard work she has put into the city but also because she’s the best of
the three candidates running for Position 1.
Bird – who is
currently serving as mayor – has been a champion for parks, sidewalks
and expanding the city’s tax base."
