City Council Candidate Interviews Tomorrow

A special meeting of the Spokane City Council will be held at 12:30 p.m. tomorrow (Wednesday) to interview candidates to fill the Councilmember position recently vacated by Steve Salvatori. The meeting is in the City Council Briefing Center at City Hall and will be open to the public. The candidates include Adrian Dominguez, Julie Griffith, Karen Stratton, Eric (EJ) Ianelli and Kitty Klitzke. Kitty is a current member of SRTC's Transportation Advisory Committee.

Because the City Council makes transportation decisions for the city and always has representatives on the SRTC Board, we are very interested to see who the appointed candidate will be. The final decision will be made at the August 18 Council meeting by a vote of the entire Council.
