Support DeVleming for fire commissioner

Tue., Oct. 29, 2013

I had the wonderful opportunity to work with Mike DeVleming on the first City Council of Spokane Valley. We elected him our first mayor because of his ability to balance the diverse individuals and groups who would be pulling us in different directions. DeVleming did a great job of focusing on what was best for the future of our community. I am certain he will do the same as fire commissioner.

That is why I am supporting DeVleming for Spokane Valley Fire District Position 2.
