Gig Harbor City Council member Jeni Woock announced in a letter to constituents that she will not run for re-election in 2025.
Woock will remain on the council through the end of her term at the end of 2025.
“While Gig Harbor does not have term limits, I am a supporter of terms limits,” Woock wrote, “and that’s why I am making room for a new council member.”
Woock was first elected to the council in 2017, when 56.15% of voters picked her over Rick Offner. She won re-election with 73.22% of the vote in 2021 against Robert Wiles.
