Bob Low – running for mayor….

Fire Marshal Bob Low is running for mayor this year

There’s another candidate in the mayor’s race – Fire Marshal Bob Low has announced he’s running. Here’s more from his announcement:

I’m running for Mayor because I love this community. Since age 5, I have been coming to the Town of Friday Harbor on vacations and holidays at my grandparents home. I have watched the town change from a sleepy fishing village to the community we see today.

I have been a full time resident of San Juan Island for over 20 years and have been a resident of Friday Harbor for 13 years.

I believe that it is my duty as a citizen of our community to serve and help make this a better place to live. I have served the community as Town of Friday Harbor volunteer firefighter and have served as its Fire Chief. I am an elected member of the board of directors of the Inter Island Medical Center and currently volunteer as an EMT with San Juan EMS. I am currently employed as San Juan County Fire Marshal.  I am also currently President of the Chiefs Association and President of the Region Three Task Force.

I know that I have the skills needed to lead the Town through many tough decisions that need to be made and at the same time bring in fresh ideas to make our town a better place to live.

I’m running for Mayor because I love this community.

I’m running because I believe I can make a difference.

I’m running because I recognize I have an obligation to the community to serve.

I’m running because I believe we can solve our problems together with leadership and direction.

I’m not running just for me – I’m running for you.
