Mike Garrison announced Wednesday his intention to run for re-election to the Pasco City Council.
Garrison, a former Pasco mayor, has been on the council since 1988.
He said he's seeking another term because he thinks Pasco's future is bright and he wants to play a role in it.
"We've made a lot of strides in the city of Pasco the last 15 years or so," Garrison said. "I've been a part of that, and I want to continue to see the city expand and grow and get greater."
The primary election is Aug. 18 and the general election is Nov. 3.

I am writing in support of the re-election of Rebecca Francik to the Pasco City Council. Rebecca's time on the council has proved her to be informed, thorough and fair. She comes to the council with no hidden agendas. Her one goal is to promote those things that will improve the city of Pasco and make it an even greater place for those of us who live here.
Our city has been well served by Rebecca and she deserves our vote. Please join me in voting to re-elect Rebecca Francik to the Pasco City Council.

Editorials not appreciated
It is time to either quit the election editorials or identify the person who is writing them. I am a citizen of the Tri-Cities and I do not appreciate the fact that the elections are being influenced by "editorials" that are nothing more than one entity's opinion and no more factual than the opinions of the masses.
Just because the Herald publishes a paper that is supposed to be "news" does not give it the right to influence the course of action that could be taken by uninformed or misleading editorials.
Report the election results but please don't attempt to sway the election itself. If the editorial board wants to voice its opinions, please move them over to the letters to the editor section where they belong.

Pasco races: Brault, Francik
Not long ago, the Tri-City Herald published an editorial on the importance of school board members doing their homework. Good advice.
I urge Pasco voters to elect Ryan Brault to the school board -- Ryan does his homework. He has demonstrated his commitment to Pasco and Pasco schools, not by empty words but through hard work. Since announcing his candidacy, he has attended every school board meeting. He will hit the ground running.
Ryan is a businessman, a Rotarian and past-president of the Pasco Chamber of Commerce. He is always well informed. Ryan Brault is the clear choice for Pasco School Board.
