October 25, 2025
The Sun Sailor recently published a letter to the editor from St. Louis Park resident Juli Rasmussen, who voiced strong support for Councilmember Sue Budd’s re-election to represent Ward 3.
In her letter, Rasmussen contrasts Sue’s record of results-focused leadership with her opponent’s platform, emphasizing Sue’s commitment to fairness, affordability, and responsible governance.
Rasmussen writes that Sue’s approach to housing policy — ensuring that inspection costs are covered by rental property owners rather than taxpayers — reflects “a commitment to supporting all of the residents of our city.” She also praised Sue’s work expanding affordable housing and her vote against a proposed property tax increase.
🗳️ Vote November 4 — and let’s keep building a responsible, fair St. Louis Park.
