Readers of More Mesa News may recall that this past Spring the More Mesa Preservation Coalition (MMPC) hosted a Forum for all the candidates seeking the position of Second District Supervisor.  At that time, we also provided a detailed reporting of the event, as a feature on this web site.

As the run-off election between the top two candidates (Janet Wolf and Dan Secord) is approaching, we thought you might want to refresh your memory about what these candidates had to say about More Mesa, and how they would go about protecting it, if elected.  You can access their views here.
