During the March 12 meeting the council heard brief presentations from two candidates.
Yvonne Jensen, introduced on the agenda as running for House District 67, spoke about her background in education and small business. She said her priorities are strengthening local education (including skills and trade training), supporting small-business growth and employment, and safeguarding natural resources and water rights. Jensen described decades of local experience in education and leadership programs and asked for the council’s consideration and support.
Mick Robertson, a candidate for clerk/auditor, described his work in IT and in county offices supporting payroll, accounts payable, elections and other clerk functions. He said the experience gives him familiarity with office workflows such as licensing, elections and financial recordkeeping and invited questions from council members.
The presentations were informational; neither item resulted in a council vote. Council members thanked the candidates and the meeting moved on to other agenda items.
