ASSESSOR: An endorsement for Allyson Knapp

| April 15, 2026 1:00 AM

I am asking for your vote in the upcoming primary election for Allyson Knapp for Kootenai County assessor. I have been involved with the need to replace our current assessor for a long time. I know several past and present employees who respected and loved working for the former assessor, Mike McDowell, who retired six years ago. Rich Hauser was his experienced and well-qualified replacement but unfortunately passed away soon after. 

The staff enjoyed working with Allyson when she was chief deputy assessor, and they were also impressed with her knowledge, energy and competence. I have met with Allyson a number of times and am convinced she would be a much better assessor than the current one. The County Commissioners cannot terminate the current assessor, but we the voters can.
