Mike Riggs a good choice for council

| September 21, 2017 3:00 AM

Mike Riggs has many experiences, qualifications, and skills that will make him an excellent choice for membership on the city council.

“Proven leadership for effective results” are words to describe Mike Riggs and his career as a teacher, school principal and superintendent of schools. Mike has leadership experience in budgets, collective bargaining agreements, policy formation and implementation, leadership and management of personnel policies and following rules and regulations.

Mike involves people in decision-making. He helps people gain ownership in the solutions to problems and proposals. Mike respects other people and listens to their ideas. He is the type of caring person we all want to work with or for. He has helped solve many individual and organizational problems effectively. Mike likes working with people and earns the trust and respect of other people. He studies all sides of a issue before making a recommendation or decision.

I believe that Moses Lake will greatly benefit by electing Mike Riggs to the city council. He is seeking the position because he is a person who wants what is the very best for all citizens, city departments, and employees. Mike will work hard and use his good judgment and his “proven leadership for effective results” to benefit all. Please join me in casting a vote for Mike Riggs.
