November’s election is coming up fast and if you haven’t made it to a candidate forum yet, the CHCC is giving you one more opportunity to talk with and hear from the two candidates running for Seattle mayor.

The focus of this forum will be quality of life, and the vitality of neighborhoods. Topics will include the relationship between city government and neighborhoods, transportation priorities, and issues of land use and open space.

The format will be slightly different than most candidate forums. Instead of a debate-like format, the candidates will answer a set of questions separately so that they are unable to hear each other’s answers. The idea is to allow the community a more in-depth conversation with each candidate and then draw distinctions themselves.
