Dear Editor,
As Yelm’s mayor, I delivered local road connections, lower water rates and public amenities like the Splash Pad. We fixed audit issues and retained a strong team of professionals who felt respected and valued. I earned the trust and endorsement of local and regional leaders with mutual respect and collaboration. Big promises by the current mayor like getting a pool, finishing the bypass and building a new river bridge never came to fruition. Instead of saying, “I’m working on it,” I’ve proven that I do the work and make real change that benefits our entire community. The choice is clear — keep a part-time mayor who works as a lobbyist for other cities or put me back to work for you as your full-time, dedicated public servant. I’ll hear you, work for you and build our best future — together. Vote JW Foster to keep Yelm, Yelm!
