Kitty Piercy

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Kitty" Piercy is the current mayor of Eugene, Oregon, sworn in January of 2005.

The press dubbed Piercy's election part of a "shift to the left" for the Eugene City Council.^{[citation needed]}

[edit] Criticisms

She is notable for overriding a decision to build a stretch of road that Eugene citizens voted for three times. A mayor for all Eugene, indeed.
