MCC Holds CUSD Candidate Forum, Wednesday

Hear CUSD candidates Charlie Gardner, Ken Johnson, and John Moseley on Wednesday, September 24, 2008, at the Midcoast Community Council’s Candidate Forum beginning at 7:30 p.m. at Seton Medical Center Coastside, Fireside Room. Please park in the upper parking lot.

For over 15 years, the MCC has cooperated with the League of Women Voters to present candidate forums for the community prior to each election. This year the only local race is for Governing Board of Cabrillo Unified School District. Each candidate will present a brief opening statement, then respond to written questions submitted by audience members, and finish with a short closing statement.

MCTV will broadcast the Candidate Forum several times prior to Election Day. Please attend so you can meet the candidates and have your questions answered.

Staying with the political theme of the evening, Martha Poyatos of LAFCo will present the Sphere of Influence Update Report for Half Moon Bay and the Unincorporated Midcoast. Ms. Poyatos will answer questions and take community comment on the proposed spheres of influence. Spheres of influence adopted by the Local Agency Formation Commission determine the areas in which cities and special districts provide services to meet the needs of their constituents.

The LAFCo report is available prior to the meeting at http://www.sanmateolafco.org/vgn/images/portal/cit_609/0/39/1321061880soicoastreportaug18.pdf and comments will be accepted by LAFCo through an extended deadline of October 1, 2008.
