Fire Commissioner write in candidate barred from speaking at local political forum
Recently last Thursday the Roslyn Chamber of Commerce put on a political forum featuring candidates from races in the local area. Susie Weis a write in candidate had ask for some time to present her case in why she should be Fire Department Commissioner. She was told because her opponent did not show it would not fair for her to mention her case for this position. Was it due to time constraints. They allowed Leah Hadfield another write-in candidate to speak of why she should be on the local city council. Now isn't this local chamber support promote economic tourism of the local area. Does areas outside of the Roslyn matter to Roslyn. Why was a candidate for a local fire district not allowed to speak? Isn't the name of the local chamber called Kittitas County Chamber not the Roslyn Chamber Chamber of Commerce. I think the organizers owe Susie an apology. When Roslyn firefighters are overwhelmed do firefighters from the local county fire district help out. I believe they do. Do county residents not matter to this chamber. Do people in Ronald and Salmon La Sac not shop in Roslyn I believe they do. I think people who are members of this chamber and this community where denied to ability who would let the future of Fire District 6. This chamber did a disservice. Roslyn is a community I love. It is time this community's chamber show respect to its residents.
