Questions from the candidates' forum

During the candidates' forum last Tuesday I pledged to answer all of the questions on this site, since at the forum itself each candidate was only able to answer three questions. I've listed the questions below (paraphrased from my notes from the forum) and linked each one to a response on my Issues page. As always, if you have any questions or concerns about what I've written, please feel free to contact me.

1. Kimberley has many vacant and substandard properties. How can this situation be improved?


2. What are your thoughts and feelings about water meters?


3. How can City Council be more transparent?

4. What is your position regarding the Sun Mine project?


5. What are three things that we can do to attract, support and grow business in Kimberley and create jobs?

6. What are your plans for low-cost and seniors' housing?


7. Will you support and work for a new and accessible arts centre?

8. What three things can we do to attract more full-time residents?

9. What should be done about Kimberley's urban deer population?


10. Do you support a new city hall?

11. Do you favour a balanced budget, and how would you achieve this?

12. What do stewardship, leadership and teamwork mean to you? How do we create an harmonious community?
