Candidate for
Member, City Council; City of Orinda

I heartily endorse Sue Severson for election to the Orinda City Council. Our 2004 Citizen of the Year, Sue has given distinguished service to our community, especially to our schools. She has the qualities of leadership that assure she will be a great asset to our city's governance.

Dick Heggie, Orinda's First Mayor

Orinda's children benefit each day from Sue's decade long commitment to our schools. Her forward-thinking, sensible approach to problem solving will have an immediate impact in getting our city council on a better track. I strongly support Sue's candidacy!

Riki Sorenson, President,Orinda Union School District Board of Trustees

In working with Sue, I have found her to be very bright, conscientious, thoroughly on top of the issues, and always respectful of others in the process. She is a consensus builder and excellent problem solver. I endorse her candidacy for the City Council with great enthusiasm!
