Incumbent council member Sharon Lee, a Democrat seeking another three-year term
Incumbent council member Kathy Horgan, also a Democrat
Republican challenger Rob Lombardi, who ran for council last year
Joe Mizzi, a Republican and treasurer of the local GOP
The format for the event, which runs from 7p to 9:30p, includes an opening statement of up to three minutes by each candidate; one hour of questions from the audience; and three-minute closing statements.
