LYNNWOOD—Christine Frizzell is seeking re-election as Mayor of Lynnwood, launches her Right Experience for Lynnwood campaign.
“March 8th is International Women’s Day, and I am proud to announce my candidacy for re-election on this day of celebrating the individual purpose and strength of women all over the world,” said Mayor
Frizzell.
“As noted in my State of the City address last week, my purpose is to continue partnering with other cities and stakeholders, creating community and safety with and for each person who lives, works, plays, learns, and shops in Lynnwood. It is with this purpose and a passion for the city I grew up in that I am seeking re-election.”
Mayor Frizzell’s leadership has seen dynamic growth in Lynnwood, including increased retail and recreational options along with the light rail terminal and road improvements. She is committed to keeping the public safe during this time of growth and speaks about Lynnwood’s new justice center that opened recently.
“Our Police Department is staffed with amazing women and men that care about our community. We will soon have a fully staffed jail and police department. This means more officers on the streets, investigating crimes, protecting and caring for the public,” said Mayor Frizzell.
Road improvements and keeping up with infrastructure maintenance are also key priorities, along with ensuring residents’ tax dollars are spent as wisely and efficiently as possible.
“I am proud Lynnwood has funds specifically set aside for fixing potholes and tending to our streets and sidewalks, keeping access open to a variety of transportation options” noted Frizzell, adding that’s just one of the ways in which the City is a responsible steward of public funds.
“Lynnwood is fortunate to have department directors paying close attention to our budgets and making wise decisions about funding. We are audited annually and have received award after award for our finances. Lynnwood currently has the second highest bond rating available for cities,” she continued.
