LYNNWOOD—Lynnwood City Councilmember Robert Leutwyler today announced he has filed to retain his City Council position to continue serving the residents of Lynnwood.
Leutwyler was appointed to the City Council in March of this year. Prior to that, he had served on the Lynnwood Planning Commission. He says he is focused on restoring and building people’s confidence in city government:
“I was honored to be appointed to this position. I now hope to earn your vote to continue working as a public servant on your behalf.
“Lynnwood has become increasingly less affordable and less accessible. We face serious economic challenges impacting the city and every household budget. Public health and safety remain an ongoing concern throughout our community.
“Despite these challenges, I believe that Lynnwood has a promising future with great opportunities ahead – but we need a City Council focused and ready to work together to tackle these issues. Now more than ever, we need to restore public trust in government.”
Leutwyler has been a Lynnwood resident since 2018. He has called the Puget Sound home since first being assigned to Joint Base Lewis-McChord in 2010. He served for five years as an Infantry Officer in the United States Army, deploying once to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.
He currently works as a program manager for international projects and initiatives at a Seattle-based multinational company. He has a bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of North Texas, and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Washington Foster School of Business. He also serves as Council Liaison for the Parks & Recreation Board.
A campaign kick-off event will be held at Peace of Mind Brewing in Lynnwood on Wednesday, May 28th from 7-9pm. Individuals can learn more by visiting RobertLeutwyler.com.
