As a 40+-year resident of Federal Way and a member of the Mayor’s “Blue Ribbon Task Force” for the PAEC, I have had exposure to many levels of the city staff. Brian Wilson facilitated the work of the PAEC Task Force over a time period of six months or so, and he did an excellent job. I found him to be competent, well prepared, thoughtful, articulate and a good listener. Overall, he did an excellent job working with a diverse set of task force members and other city staff that supported the task force.

The Brian Wilson that is described in several opinion pieces by Bob Roegner and “Mr. Federal Way” in your paper bears no relationship to the Brian Wilson that I know.
