Ogilvie has passion for city of Sandpoint
Francis Ogilvie deserves another term as city councilman. He has devoted years to the city and his goals has been to keep Sandpoint a desirable place in which to live. He is passionate about maintaining the charm and "small town" atmosphere of Sandpoint, but at the same time realizes that change is inevitable and makes informed decisions by thoroughly studying the issues and researching the options. If you want someone on the city council who will look out for the interests of its citizens, vote for Francis Ogilvie.
Trio's commitment deserves support
For the past several years I have been involved in several projects and organizations that are committed to improving the economic and cultural opportunities within Sandpoint and the surrounding areas. At each of these meetings Cindy Elliott, Frances Ogilvie and Steve Lockwood have demonstrated their commitment to the residents of Sandpoint, and while I have not always agreed with their positions, they are willing to listen. I respect their passion to try and make Sandpoint a town for all residents to be proud of now and for the future.
