To the editor:

Residents of Bainbridge Island will soon have the fortunate opportunity to elect Pegeen Mulhern for the city council at-large position.

I have had the pleasure of having Pegeen Mulhern and her fine family as neighbors for nearly 25 years. Pegeen is a highly respected, trusted and well-liked member of our neighborhood community. In addition to her strong family, community, and environmental values, I can attest to Pegeen’s leadership attributes.

Pegeen is a team player. I have observed these skills in action as Pegeen has served numerous terms on our homeowner association board as president, vice president and at-large member.

The city will benefit from Pegeen’s excellent communication and collaboration skills. When faced with a controversial or complicated issue you will not get an emotional, knee-jerk reaction from Pegeen. With a respectful calm and level-headed demeanor, Pegeen intelligently seeks and gathers information. She does her research, asks the right questions, and actively listens to all points of view in order to formulate well-informed workable recommendations and solutions.

Pegeen is an innovative thinker with a proactive stance. She is a longtime Bainbridge Island resident who is dedicated to the preservation of the character and livability of the island. As a council member, we will all benefit from her ability to think outside of the box in order to develop comprehensive plans for the betterment of our treasured island.

It is my belief that Pegeen has exactly what it takes to effectively serve the city of Bainbridge Island. Please join me by supporting Pegeen Mulhern for city council.
