The Arlington Police Officer’s Association has voted to endorse Barb Tolbert’s candidacy for the position of Mayor in the city of Arlington. Our Association has never before endorsed a political candidate for a local city office. We have chosen to support Barb because our city needs the kind of forward-thinking, strong leadership that Barb uniquely brings to the table.
In her capacity as Executive Director of the annual Arlington Fly-In, Barbara Tolbert has shown her organizational skills as well as her dedication and devotion to Arlington. What many may not know is how involved this lady is in a myriad of volunteer efforts throughout this community — President, Cascade Valley Hospital Foundation; board of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce and Lions Club. Past service includes the Arlington School District Facilities Committee; Director, Snohomish County Tourism Board; and recently Chair of the EMS levy committee to ensure Emergency Medical Services to our community for the future.
Arlington Fire Fighters Local 3728 is proud to endorse Barb Tolbert for Mayor of Arlington. We are honored to stand with a candidate who has given so much time and leadership to our department.
As we are all faced with challenges in our economies, both nationally and locally, we think now more than ever it’s important to consider the type of leadership that we elect into office.
