Miki Mullor
A ninth candidate filed for Sammamish City Council today.
Miki Mullor filed for Position 1, and will oppose Jason Ritchie. Until now, Ritchie was the only candidate for one of four positions up for election this year who remained unopposed.
Position 7 so far has three candidates seeking this seat, ensuring a primary in August if nobody withdraws. Positions 3 and 5 each have two candidates.
The eighth candidate for Sammamish City Council filed today.
Melanie L. Curtright, 57, of the Hampton Woods neighborhood in the North end of the city, filed for Position 7. John Robinson and Pamela Stuart previously filed for this position. If none drops out or changes slots, this sets up a primary in August at which the top two advance to the November election.
Wally Pereyra, gearing up for a new land use appeal over development affecting Ebright Creek.
A tiny, two-home short plat is at the heart of what’s likely to be another appeal to protect environmentally sensitive Ebright Creek.
The Sammamish City Staff Monday approved development “to subdivide one parcel comprising approximately 2.97 acres into two single-family residential lots. The site is located to the east of Ebright Creek, west of the Greenbriar subdivision. The site is constrained by the buffer of a Type F stream (Ebright Creek) and landslide hazard area buffers.”
The applicants, Clifford and Pauline Cantor, first filed for development 16 years ago.
The seventh candidate field for Sammamish City Council yesterday. Four seats are up for election.
Pamela Stuart filed her paperwork with the state Public Disclosure Commission, declaring for Position 7, the seat held by retiring Council Member Tom Odell.
John Robinson previously filed for this position.
Stuart hasn’t officially announced, or so it seems. But she’s already been endorsed by the King County Democrats organization (hence probably triggering the PDC filing).
Friday, May 19, is the final day for filing as a candidate for Sammamish City Council and other positions in this off-year election.
Filing begins on Monday, May 15.
Four seats in Sammamish are up for election, and each incumbent announced retirement this year.
This is the first time since incorporation this many seats are “open” seats.
So far, only six candidates filed for the four seats. One of these, Karen Moran, hasn’t declared which seat she will contest.
