In this in-depth Candidate Conversation, host Jeff Slakey sits down with retired Navy Senior Chief Ken Mobley, one of four contenders for Shelton City Council Position 3. Mobley shares his journey from aircraft-carrier leadership to life in Shelton, explains why economic growth can’t come at the expense of natural beauty, and lays out four pillars—fiscal health, sustainable development, transparent leadership, and youth engagement.
The pair dive into hot-button issues like affordable housing, Brewer Park’s homelessness debate, and why every vote in August’s top-two primary matters. Mobley also opens up about balancing family, fitness, and community service, revealing why he believes small coalitions of committed residents can spark big change. Recorded May 2025.
Jeff has emailed all four of the candidates for the Shelton City Council #3 race for a chance to connect. He is only doing this position for the primary since it's the only race that has more than two people in running for the same position.
