Westminster does not run Westminster, our professional staff runs Westminster. Our professional staff is bored with being a suburb; their dreams lie in high density, mass transit and public housing.

The elected Council of Westminster it too kind, gentle, accommodating and afraid to run Westminster. Council is a figurehead, a smiling-face to show concern- and our brilliant, over-paid, professional staff fills the void.

We concern ourselves with minor details and leave to staff the profound decisions and tens of millions of dollars of spending. Council does not even guide our budget process!

The November 2023 election will not change this but voters must take a step towards change. Even with new council members the majority will not change unless some carry-over members change their hearts.

Two of the carry-over Council members have no interest in sustaining Westminster as a suburb. One fully supports the staff running Westminster. She has contempt for the elected council members, hates suburbs, single family homes, green lawns and private cars. Another cares only about climbing the political ladder and has already announced his quest for higher office. His professed concern for Westminster is the Pro Forma requirement to fool the voters.

I want Westminster to be an enduring, self-sustaining, safe, quiet, beautiful suburb. I invite everyone to join me in preserving Westminster.

Bruce Baker, Westminster

Options abound for better Westminster

With the former school...that is, the Sheridan Green site, we have the possibility of solving some of our many problems within Westminster...especially a lot of selfcreated problems.

That site can be a mixed-use solution for problems such as homelessness, as real estate for construction of teacher and workforce housing, as classroom and recreation space for residents, etc.

Let’s stop depending on the Uplands group to “solve” our problems...they are doing nothing but exacerbating them.

The latest application for the Davies Locker site for something that meets no local codes or regulations, while taking advantage of city council’s fear that if some outside “power” doesn’t come in and take over Westminster with their self-serving plans, then Westminster will be doomed.

Geez...get a handle!

There are people who can meet and address local concerns without giving away the ‘farm’, literally and figuratively, to outside interests. The Uplands group does NOT have our best interest at heart. The

Uplands group regularly feeds off the fear of city council, just to get exactly what it wants...kind of reminds me of Putin and his mercenary army situation. Good GOD!

Pathetic and self-destructive, to say the least...
