Information for the voting citizens of Enumclaw: the current City Council election has a potential problem in the works.  If you were not already aware, Chance LaFleur is running unopposed and therefore will be elected to the council. The problem comes into play as Darrel Dickson is Chance LaFleur’s boss and he is running against incumbent Rich Elfers.  The prospect of having the boss of a company and one of his subordinates elected to the same City Council is one huge conflict of interest.

Do we as citizens of this town really want that type of conflict added to our City Council?
