City of Des Moines

By JOURNAL STAFF

Des Moines Mayor Traci Buxton has been elected 2025 president of the Sound Cities Association (SCA). SCA represents 38 King County cities and provides a regional voice for more than one million people. “Mayor Buxton is an outstanding leader for our region, and I am looking forward to great things at SCA under her leadership,” said Issaquah Mayor Mary Lou Pauly, who serves as immediate past president of SCA. Buxton was elected SCA president by the SCA Board of Directors, which consists of councilmembers and mayors in King County. Member cities include the King County cities with populations under 250,000. Buxton was first elected to the Des Moines City Council in 2017, and as mayor in 2024. First elected to the SCA Board of Directors in 2022, Buxton served as vice president in 2024. SCA was founded in the 1970s to help cities act locally and partner regionally to create vital, livable communities through advocacy, education, leadership, mutual support and networking.
