City Council Candidates Meet at Contented Cow Forum

Three candidates vying for the Northfield City Council Ward 4 seat share their thoughts on city issues during the first of two public candidate forums.

The three candidates vying for the Northfield City Council Ward 4 seat met at the Contented Cow last Thursday for a candidate forum hosted by Steve Engler.

A special election for the seat is being held on Election Day, Tuesday, Nov. 5.

There are three candidates for the seat. Jessica Peterson White, who was appointed to the seat after Councilor Patrick Ganey resigned to accept a position at Middlebury College in Vermont, is hoping to get voter approval to finish the last year of Ganey's term. Rick Esse and Scott Oney are the other two candidates.

Thursday's forum was produced by Northfield Public Access Television (NTV) and can be watched on Vimeo.com by clicking on the video window above.

Another candidate forum is scheduled for 7 p.m. Monday, Oct. 28 in Room 103 at the Northfield Senior Center, 1651 Jefferson Pkwy.
