Schneider to run for Gresham Council

Dick Schneider, a retired senior aerospace coordinator for the International Assocation of Machinists, announced that he will be a candidate for a seat on Gresham’s City Council. Schneider, 62, retired in April after nearly 40 years with IAM Lodge 63, which represents workers at Boeing. The City of Gresham operates under a Council-Manager form of government where-by the six-person City Council (plus the mayor) is elected citywide by residents to be the legislative and policy-making body. The Council appoints a city manager to handle day-to-day operations. Three seats are up in 2008. Schneider has not declared which seat he will seek.
