Continuing its ongoing commitment to keeping area residents informed, the Naperville Area Homeowners Confederation will host two candidates’ forum for those running for the eight open seats on the Naperville City Council.
The Naperville Area Homeowners Confederation presents 10 Candidates of 20 for City Council, 7-9PM Tues., March 24, in City Council Chambers. (10 names remained after drawing during the December NAHC meeting: Bill Eagan, Becky Anderson, Patty Gustin, Wayne Floegel, Dick Furstenau, Dave Wentz, Tom O’Hale, Steve Peterson, Stephen Purduski and Kevin Gallaher.)
Two evenings later, the Naperville Area Homeowners Confederation presents nine Candidates of 20 for City Council, 7-9PM Thurs., March 26, in City Council Chambers. (10 names were drawn during the December NAHC meeting: Joe McElroy, Kevin Coyne, (Note: Jimmy Bergeron, previously listed as a suspended candidate, will be on the ballot. Yet, as of the March 17 City Council meeting, he is no longer a candidate.), Rebecca Boyd-Obarski, Judith Brodhead, John Krummen, Bob Hajek, Paul Hinterlong, John Colletti and Nancy Mariello.)
According to Homeowners Confederation President Bob Fischer, at least four new faces will be seated on the Council dais in May.
“With 20 names on the ballot we split the field in half and are hosting two forums to provide Naperville homeowners and voters with the best chance to learn where the candidates stand,” said Fischer.
“The Confederation’s single prepared question for the candidates deals with finance. We’ve allotted over an hour in each forum for questions from that night’s audience so the community can ask candidates what they will need to know to make informed decisions at the polls.”
NAHC Candidate Forums are broadcast live on Naperville’s Government Access Station WCNC (Channel 6 WOW, Channel 10 Comcast, and Channel 99 AT&T) and streamed live on the City’s website, http://www.naperville.il.us/. Forums also will be replayed on WCNC prior to the elections.
