Everett City Council Unanimously Chooses Rich Anderson to Fill Council Position 7

While many pleaded for a woman to be appointed to fill the seat on the Everett City Council vacated by Shannon Affholter, tonight the Everett City Council chose Rich Anderson to fill the remainder of Affholter’s term. Anderson and four other candidates went before the council in interviews this afternoon (a sixth was unable to attend but did submit a written statement) prior to tonight’s vote. He will be formally sworn in to serve council position 7 at next Wednesday’s Everett City Council meeting. Here’s his bio from the Hasscal, Sjoholm website…
