What have you done/do you want to achieve as mayor?
Merrill Sanford
Candidate for Mayor
The immediate thing to do is to hire a new city manager within the next four months. We’ve already started that process. Kim (Kiefer), our current city manager, will be gone Jan. 1, and we need to get somebody on board who can take over the reins and develop the next two-year budget cycle with us.
Greg Fisk
Candidate for Mayor
I think we need to focus on economic development and diversity because we’re going to take some hits on state government jobs. We have to work on attracting other industries and developing other business opportunities: tourism, seafood, research.
