Diana comments on Issues, Questions & Answers
Diana's Statement at the Chamber's candidate forum (Oct. 7, 2009)
As a former Mayor and continuing City Council member I know this. I will persist in the effort to make Spokane Valley the best place to do business while providing for strong police protection and great maintained roads. Keeping the proven track record of a balanced budget and working on revisions to the Sprague/Appleway plan are my goals. I strive to meet face to face to talk about all issues and I desire that Spokane Valley remain the greatest city for all of my neighbors, families and businesses. I ask for your vote! Thank you.
