Candidate endorsements and questionnaires :
Endorsements were made based on TreePAC’s questionnaire, candidate websites, candidate statements in the media and on-line, candidate forums, and feedback from others.
Our endorsement was based on who we believe will do the best job as Seattle Mayor and on the Seattle City Council on updating our Tree Protection Ordinance and ensuring it will be enforced. In some cases we believed that both candidates were well qualified and we endorsed both.
For Seattle Port Commissioner races we looked at who we believed had a track record on working on environment, climate and urban forestry issues as well as what their goals were for future Port actions on not just at the Port but on neighboring communities affected by the Port’s operations.
We hope our recommendations help you in making a decision of who to vote for. We urge you to read their questionnaires as they contain a lot of details as to what those running said they will do if elected. Remember the deadline to return ballots is November 2, 2021.
