9th District Metro Council Candidate Forum to be Held at the Clifton Center
Louisville, KY – The Frankfort Avenue Business Association (FABA) will host a public forum for the candidates running for the 9th District Metro Council seat on Wednesday, March 19th from 6:00pm-8:00pm in the Clifton Center’s Eifler Theater, 2117 Payne Street. The candidates will be given five minutes to address the audience, followed by an informal meet-n-greet where attendees can speak with the candidates one-on-one. The event is free and open to the public and will include light refreshments. Crescent Hill Radio will also broadcast the forum live at www.CrescentHillRadio.com.
“Councilwoman Ward-Pugh has been a strong advocate for the many independent businesses along the Frankfort Avenue corridor for many years,” says FABA President and Comfy Cow Owner Tim Koons-McGee. “Therefore the business community is extremely interested in the candidates that are running to replace her. We feel this Candidate Forum is a wonderful opportunity for not just our business community but for the entire 9th District to gauge exactly where each candidate stands on the issues that are important to them.
The candidates are (alpha order): Jane Natalie Bennett, Jason Clark, Greg Bourke, Mike Brooks, Jason Clark, J.P. Davis, Chris Hartley, Bill Hollander, Stephen P. Imhoff, Geoffrey "Jeff" Morris, Jonathan Musselwhite, Bette Niemi, Benjamin Vaughn, and Mollie Younger Noe.
9th District Councilwoman Tina Ward-Pugh announced in December that she will not seek re-election and her term will expire in December of 2014.
