Heather Benedict 6/14/25 4:56 PM Improving franchise oversight is wise—Pierce County must ensure accountability in all public matters. But while you amend franchise terms for utilities, the Clerk of the Superior Court remains under an unconfirmed appointment. That position is the recordkeeper of judicial life in this county. It deserves the same public scrutiny you demand of our infrastructure partners.
