He moved to Lewiston in 1978 to manage Clearwater Valley Medical, and since moving to the Palouse ran a successful campaign in 2007 for a council seat. But Steed said two years just wasn't enough.
"I don't feel like in two years I've been able to accomplish the things I'd like to get done," said Steed. "We've done some things. We've got sidewalks on Mountain View north of 6th, we've got sidewalks on Highway 8."
Steed said he spent the previous two years doing a lot of learning, especially from the Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee. While his main focus at one time was transportation, he says he is ready to take his focus underground.
"It is a combination of wanting to continue to pursue programs I've had in mind ever since I was chairman of the transportation commission, and to continue to explore the water situation on the Palouse," said Steed.
Steed promises that moving forward, no decision has or will ever be taken lightly.
"I'm a detail person," said Steed. "I do read what we're given, and try to find out what's behind it all. I try to ask staff questions to have them develop for the council the reasons behind things that are being put in front of us, and try to listen to constituents."
