Council candidate Matt Spring, his wife, and one-year-old daughter have lived in Waitsburg for three years, He grew up in the Walla Walla area and has worked at the Waitsburg McGregor Company plant since 2009.

Since moving to Waitsburg, Spring has become a member of the Waitsburg Lions Club and is a volunteer firefighter for Columbia-Walla Walla Fire District No. 2.

"I wanted to run for city council because it is my desire to see Waitsburg succeed," Spring said. "I think I am a good candidate for city council because I bring a young family perspective and am a dedicated person," he added.

Spring echoed the sentiment of other candidates, saying that he feels the greatest challenge currently facing Waitsburg is the lack of economic growth and the need to bring in new businesses.

"What I would most like to see happen in Waitsburg would be to attract some new business and grow the local economy, and potentially grow the city as a whole," Spring said.
