With a stated mission “to empower Edmonds neighbors, organizations and government to work together to solve problems in a genuinely collaborative, equitable and non-partisan manner,” a group of residents Thursday launched the Edmonds Civic Roundtable.
Organizers stressed that the group does not advocate for specific outcomes regardless of how individual members might feel. “We believe sound decisions will come from a sound decision making process,” said Tom Mesaros, a former Edmonds City Councilmember who is the newly elected board president.
