Councilmember Ken Yeager Endorses Clark Williams for City Council

September 18, 2006 — Willow Glen, CA — Ken Yeager, the popular San Jose City Councilmember representing District 6, today endorsed Clark Williams, Vice President of the North Willow Glen Neighborhood Association, to replace him on the San Jose City Council. Councilman Yeager highlighted Clark’s service to the neighborhoods and his deep involvement in the community as the top reasons for his endorsement.

“After meeting with the candidates for District 6, I am enthusiastically endorsing Clark Williams,” said Councilmember Ken Yeager. “He has the best grasp of the issues facing the District and the City. In addition, he will be a strong advocate for protecting our neighborhoods against poorly planned infill developments.”

“Ken has been a tremendous advocate for our neighborhoods and I have big shoes to fill,” said Clark Williams. “I am proud to have earned his endorsement and I appreciate his confidence in my abilities to continue serving the residents of District 6,” Williams continued.

Running with Ken Yeager’s mantle of support, Clark Williams assuredly becomes the front runner in the race to succeed Yeager on the City Council. Yeager will ascend to the County Board of Supervisors in January after winning the Supervisor’s seat outright against two formidable opponents in the past June election.

Councilmember Yeager joins a growing list of elected officials, neighborhood leaders and organizations supporting Clark Williams for San Jose City Council District 6, including; the League of Conservation Voters, the Santa Clara County Democratic Party, San Jose City Councilmembers Madison Nguyen and Forrest Williams, Santa Clara County Assessor Larry Stone, State Assemblymembers Sally Lieber and John Laird and more than ten different leaders of District Six neighborhood associations.

Clark, his partner James Moore and their 3-year-old daughter, Caroline, live in the Willow Glen neighborhood of San Jose. Election Day is Tuesday, November 7.
