Candidate Questionnaires Next Week
Just to correct my earlier post on our upcoming municipal elections (March primary & April general). I have not yet mailed out letters to all the candidates.
I’m still revising the online questionnaire the candidates will hopefully fill out. This task will be completed this weekend and letters will go out to candidates next week with instructions on how to complete the questionnaire. The deadline will be mid-February.
Most likely I will only send these out to those in contested races. I’ve got a pretty good list of topics already but if you have suggestions for more suggest them in a comment below.
possible topics
Transit funding, MetroLink expansion, possible role of streetcars…
enhancing the walking and biking experience
How do we end the suburbanization of parts of the city?

DO NOT ask about a city-county merger or anything like it.
