Summary: Here it is, our last candidate of 2019! This was a meaty interview, y'all. John O'Loughlin is running for At-Large Position 8 on the City Council, which is being vacated by Ryan Mello as he terms out. <br> <br> <br> <br> O'Loughlin spent 31 years working for the city of Tacoma in environmental services, and oversaw the cleanup of the Foss Waterway. He says that experience brings him a unique perspective on budget and environmental issues in the city. <br> <br> <br> <br> O'Loughlin hasn't run for office before and says he's not a politician. Here, he talks about his ideas on paying for affordable housing, environmental issues surrounding the Port, and his favorite movie, which is a question we probably should have been asking all the candidates because his answer was a deep cut. <br> <br> <br> <br> Links<br> <br> <br> <br> Elect John O'Loughlin website<br> <br> <br> <br> Public Disclosure Commission: O'Loughlin John F <br> <br> <br> <br> Two new faces will join Tacoma City Council.
