Downtown business owner and former city council candidate Carlos Jara announced he will run for Bremerton mayor. Jara becomes the sixth candidate for the job being vacated by Cary Bozeman, who will be taking the CEO job at the port.
Jara ran in 2007 for the seat won by Roy Runyon. He and his wife, Christina, moved to Bremerton in 2004. He opened Puget Sound Box & Shipping near the ferry terminal and later turned it into Harborside Market. Christina Jara owns and operates the Isella Day Spa, also in downtown.
The couple lives in West Bremerton.
Hey Carlos,
Right on buddy! I wondered why you had been mowing your lawn more often….just kidding.

Thanks Colleen! Well, we got a new lawn mower since I shredded my power chord last year. Christina is holding me to a nicer lawn…
I look forward to hitting the streets and meeting my neighbors. You can find more about what my goals are by visiting http://www.vote4carlos.com.

I hope this means more “Vote for Carlos” tee shirts. I missed out last time since I threw my lot in with Trent first and then you second. I won’t make that mistake this time:)
