We believe that informed citizens are the foundation of a strong\, thriving community.\n\nIn preparation for each forum\, we invite community members to submit questions for consideration. Candidates are provided with a selection of these questions in advance not as a requirement\, but as a professional courtesy to help them prepare thoughtfully. This gesture is intended to support a respectful and productive dialogue\, not to limit spontaneity or transparency.\n\n\n\nThe Chamber is not obligated to include or share all questions submitted\, but we strive to represent a wide range of community interests while maintaining a professional and constructive forum environment.\n\nIt's important to note that the Chamber of Commerce Candidate Forum is not a debate\, but rather an opportunity to inform and engage the community. Our goal is to provide a respectful\, unbiased setting where candidates can present their qualifications\, share their priorities\, and communicate their vision for the future.\n\nIf you have any questions or concerns about the process\, please contact the Chamber office directly. We are committed to open communication and transparency. As always\, we ask that all discussions remain constructive in the spirit of supporting an informed and unified community.
