LOFFMAN: Newcomer has traditional values
The office of mayor is an executive and visionary position. He or she presents the “persona“ of the city in terms of its rooted values. These are invisible matters of spirit and heart and not a function of geography. A mayor with these qualities of mind could be either a “newcomer“ or an “old comer.“
This election for Coeur d’Alene mayor highlights the importance of Coeur d’Alene’s traditional values. These include support for local business, local control, low taxes, family-friendly neighborhoods, a responsive, fair and open city government, a welcoming, respectful attitude toward newcomers and a helping hand for neighbors in need.
