“If a person is willing to work
they can do the job," said
Weaver.
The councilmen all noted the
value of the fact that each of the
three candidates can be available
in the city at any time of the day.
“All three candidates are in-
terested in no single group —
they are interested in every
group from the children to the
senior citizens,” said Marks.
Individually the councilmem-
bers cited Bedell for her know-
ledge of the city through her busi-
ness background that "allows her
to be aware of many of the prob-
lems of the city and be able to
address them.”
Councilman Spears offered
specific feelings about the Place 2
race, the position he now holds.
“Since I am leaving Place 2 I
feel the most qualified candidate
is Laurie Manning,” said Spears.
Manning has a specific under-
standing of the advantages and
problems of the city. Weaver also
noted her commitment to avoid
any action by the city that could
lead to a tax increase.
"She seems to have a fresh
spirit and new ideas compared to
the other candidates (in Place 2).
She also shows a lot of common
sense,” said Marks.
Sipe, too, has a desire to avoid
tax increases and “she seems to
have a proper feel for the priori-
ties of the city,” said Marks.
“Noretta would be an indepen-
dent voice for her constituents.
She has a willingness and a deter-
mination to give here all to her
district,” said Marks.
2 race has three candidates, Laurie
Manning, Marlene Poole and Steve
Withers. The Place 3 race has four
candidates, incumbent Noretta Sipe
is being challenged by Michael G.
Alianell, Byron L. Knepp Jr, and
Sandra Pendergraph.
The average turnout for an elec-
tion of this type is 600 to 700 voters.
Last year’s turnout was lighter than
usual, said Hicks.
The election judges are instructed
by Hicks that if they have a problem, at Peters Colony Elementary!

branch leaders, Downing pleaded
with the officials to understand the
problems of annual deficit budgets
facing Lewisville schools.
“Senator Parker’s bill does not be-
gin to address our specific needs. It
is simply unbelievable and ridiculous
to realize that a district of only aver-
age wealth and very rapid growth
will lose money under the plan cur-
rently being considered,” Downing
wrote.
Downing is sending the letter on
the heels of a trip made to Austin last
weekend for an education leaders
forum put together by Rep. Ben
Campbell, R-Flower Mound. Down-
ing has been critical of Campbell for
issues relating to education in the
past, but praised Campbell for taking
the initiative on this issue. Getting
Campbell’s attention, as well as Kir-
by’s, leaves Downing optimistic for
what’s to come for him in future Au-
stin lobbying.
“I promise you, they know who
Lewisville is now,” he said.
