Shari Song, a longtime business woman and community leader, has entered the race for Metropolitan King County Council, District 9.

Song, a realtor with Prudential Northwest Associates, brings more than 20 years of experience working and living in the county and has achieved recognition as the Federal Way Soroptimist International Woman of Distinction Award and King County Recognition for Community Service Award.

“I am passionate about my community and want to bring my decades of experience to serve the residents of King County,” Song said. “With the huge growth that we are experiencing it is important that there is someone with on-the-ground knowledge of what’s happening. There are immigrants, seniors and young couples with children – all working hard to make a go of it.

“We all want the same things – a safe and decent home, good social services, and reliable transportation,” Song said. “I am committed to working tirelessly for the people of King County. This is not a job that I am looking at as a stepping stone to something larger, but an opportunity for me to support my community and create a better government for many years to come.”

The seat is presently is held by Reagan Dunn.
