Munson says ‘we need practical leadership that puts residents first, protects public dollars, and ensures the city works for everyone’
BATTLE GROUND – Longtime Battle Ground resident, father, coach, and former City Council member Brian Munson has announced his candidacy for Battle Ground City Council, Position 6.
“With a proven track record of public service and deep roots in the community, Munson is stepping forward once again to ensure that Battle Ground continues to grow responsibly, efficiently, and with the best interests of its residents at heart,’’ read a statement announcing his candidacy.
During his previous term on the Council, Munson served on several key boards and committees, including the Lodging Tax Advisory Committee (LTAC) and the Legislative Committee, among others. Munson stated that his focus throughout was clear: efficiency, transparency, and fiscal responsibility and that every decision he made was guided by a simple principle — “make it make sense” for the residents of Battle Ground.
One of Munson’s notable initiatives was the creation of the Adopt-A-Park Community Rewards Program in 2018. This innovative program encouraged local volunteerism by offering community members credits toward the use of city facilities such as the Battle Ground Community Center, Senior Center, and Kiwanis Park. The initiative not only promoted civic pride and cleaner parks, but also delivered significant cost savings for taxpayers.
“I’m running because I believe in this community and in serving the people — not political agendas,” said Munson. “We need practical leadership that puts residents first, protects public dollars, and ensures the city works for everyone.”
As the campaign unfolds, Munson will continue to share his vision for responsible growth, improved infrastructure, public safety, and lowering the tax burden on families and businesses.
