Letter to the Editor: Mark Mullet has Voted Against Increased Property Tax in Issaquah Every Year

Issaquah City Councilman and 5th District resident Fred Butler says rhetoric from independent groups claiming Mark Mullet supports raising taxes is simply untrue.

Dear Editor:

I have worked with Mark Mullet since he was elected to the Issaquah City Council in 2009.  It really bothers me to see the stuff coming from independent groups saying that Mark Mullet supports raising taxes. That is simply not true and is far from the truth. 

During my time on the Issaquah Council I have been impressed that Mark looks for efficiencies in government to balance the budget not extra tax revenue.  Mark has voted against increasing the property tax on Issaquah residents every year since he was elected. Mark will bring the same fiscal responsibility he has shown on the Council to Olympia to balance our state budget. 

I encourage you to vote for Mark Mullet for State Senate.

Fred Butler

Issaquah City Council

We too, love having our Farmers' Market return! Opening day was a bit weather-challenged. ThankRead More you merchants for enduring the wet and cold for our new extended hours! What a wonderful sight will return to the plaza when the sunshine calls back all the families with happy, giggling children. Market day is a date of dinner out (side) & shopping (vegetables, fruits and now HedgeHog Toffee) with my husband. Doesn't get much better than that! SEE YOUR THERE! Susan Gerend
