Camas resident Brad Jensen raises concerns about Camas City Council candidate Masha Eshghi in her race against Leslie Lewallen
Camas City Council candidate, Masha Eshghi can’t wait to raise your taxes! I have concerns about the incestuous relationship between expensive consultants receiving contracts as their friends sit on the City Council.
It concerns me when former city employees (police, fire, education, etc.) on the council allocate taxpayer money but do not recuse themselves because of potential conflict of interest. To be clear they aren’t Camas employees, but their interests are clear.
Look who is publicly supporting Masha! Masha is a recent employee of MacKay Sposito engineering (she used her MacKay email on 6/9/25 to file as a candidate). MacKay Sposito has current contracts with Camas.
