As part of our mission to inform & educate we asked 32 candidates running in the August 12, primaries in Hurricane, Ivins and St. George to answer the following questions:
- Why should people vote for you over other candidates?
- How will you ensure our infrastructure can support future growth, particularly when it comes to water?
- What steps will you take to ensure affordable housing is available in our city?
- How do you plan to ensure equitable economic opportunities for all residents and make sure all voices, especially marginalized communities, are heard and considered in city decisions?
- What would you prioritize in the city budget, and what would you consider cutting?
- Which Disney character do you most relate to and why?
We hope this information proves useful to you in your decision making process.
