District 6 candidate forum announced

The Brainerd Unity Group is inviting the public to a candidate forum to feature those who have qualified for the February 5, 2008 special election in Chattanooga's 6th Council District. The seat is open due to the resignation of former Council member Marti Rutherford after it was charged that she did not live in the district.

The forum will be held at the same location that hosted the District 10 Senate event last month: Friendship Community Church at the corner of N Tuxedo Ave and Brainerd Rd. It is scheduled for Thursday, January 24, at 6:00 PM.

Six candidates are in the running, and all have been invited. It will be interesting to see if all of them make an appearance.

I have been asked to moderate. I gratefully and humbly accepted, and look forward to assisting area residents in getting to know more about each of the candidates.

It's great for District 6 that there are presidential primaries scheduled on the same day as this special election, as that may boost turnout.

Joe, Thanks for posting info on the Dist. 6 Forum. I also saw that you have a Dist. 6 link w/candidate info. Charles Shaw has a website: http://brainerdbuzz.endihost.com/ and Carol Berz will have one up next week, I'm told.

Mike Feely is TERRIFIC! His appointment is a good omen for us, Joe.
