Questions for the 2012 Albany City Council Candidates

City Council Candidate Questionnaire

The Albany Strollers & Rollers met and selected seven questions for the seven candidates from among the many suggestions, after having solicited ideas for questions on our email Discussion List. The answers appear below in the order received. Choosing good questions was a struggle, and we are grateful to the candidates for taking the time to compose responses.

    Where can I find the names of the city council candidates and how each stands on various issues?

  • Amy Smolens

    Hi Jim –
    This year there were three open spots on City Council and the same number of candidates. Therefore there will be no election for Albany City Council this year and all three candidates have be appointed to Council to start serving in mid-December.
