Clatsop County Commissioners' Candidates Forum

Candidates for all 3 Clatsop County Commissioner Districts will be speaking at a Forum which will take place on Thursday, April 22, 2010, at 7:00 p.m. at the Clatsop Community College Performing Arts Center, 16th and Franklin, Astoria.

These candidates include: Scott Lee and Jeff Hazen for District 1; John Raichl and Peter Huhtula for District 3; and Debra Birkby, John Dunzer and Robert Mushen for District 5.

While votes are cast for the County Commissioner who represents the district where the voter resides, each County Commissioner makes decisions which affect the entire County. The Board of Commissioners also hires a County Manager to carry out its policies and oversee the day-to-day operations of County government.

The Forum is co-sponsored by the Astoria Chapter of the American Association of University Women and Clatsop Community College. The speakers will be invited to give an opening statement and will answer questions submitted by the audience.
